I paint the flowers of a forsythia shrub using a limited palette of watercolor and gouache. I show how to start by capturing the overall gesture and silhouette of the whole plant and then subdivide the mass into smaller shapes.
Wow, very nice as well as helpful. Keyword-representative. Not easy to remember, the forsythia is a good subject to focus on. Thank you Today I photographed a forsythia that had the sunlight on the top third. This is the first year it has fully bloomed in the about 7 years since it was planted. Two years ago it was cut way back. And now, it is tall enough to reach up for more sunlight.
