Purple Pansy Flower.
Painting Class Taught by Clina Polloni.
Flower-Purple Pansy Painting
Learn to paint a Purple Pansy. This painting was created for the painting classes, is a simple and charming painting for a person that is starting to paint.
The Purple Pansy symbolize love for anyone who is close to your heart.
Instructions:
- Start by drawing the pink Purple Pansy.
- Under-painting: give a washed of acrylic Cadmium Yellow Light to the background and Dioxazine Purple to the flower. Outline flower and leaves with Dioxazine Purple. Acrylics are very good for under-painting; they create the basics colors to put the oils or acrylics in the top.
- Next paint with oils or acrylics in the following order: background, purple pansy and leaves.
- Sign your work of art.
Supply: This painting can be done in 2 media, Oil Paintings or Acrylics:
