Well, shoot!
This one is so flat. I did try darkening areas and lifting areas but it just didn’t seem to make much difference. Maybe it’s the colors used? No, I think I’m missing something here in trying to paint irises - you want the curvy shapes and it should look more delicate than this…
Okay, one more try and then I’ll give up for a while and let this subject rest until I can work it out.
maybe try something else that would use the purple paints?
ReplyDeleteYeah, think it’s the shape of the flower as much as the color - but somewhat the color, too…need to be more creative with mixing other colors into the purple.
ReplyDeleteI like this stylized approach ... it's more about the contour and the colors than about the modeling. The little cracks of white are really nice too!
