Impressionistic Flowers in a Cup

Impressionistic Flowers in a Cup

1. Use largest brush with white and Sage green to cover the tp 2/3 of the canvas. Then add some of the brighter green towards the bottom. 

2. Use a dabbing technique to create the texture on the background. 

3. Using brown and white and side to side strokes cover the lower 1/3 of the canvas. You may want to leave room unpainted for the cup. 

4. Use the medium brush and the bright green with a tiny bit of black to create the stems of the flowers. Use caution with the amount of black. 

5. Rinse brush and use medium brush to fill in the cup and handle with white. Then add a bit of black to create a gray and add shadowing on cup and under the cup.

6. Rinse medium brush again and dab in the white of the flowers. 

7. Use smallest brush and dab in the yellow centers of flowers.
