Yellow Roses - Simple Introduction to Watercolor by Neadeen Masters

The goal of this painting lesson is to introduce the artist to the basic watercolor techniques. Create full blown roses, viewed from the front as well as the side profile.

• While painting this 'old styled' botanical spray, you will be able to paint detailed, up-close roses using 'wet in wet' and 'wet on dry' traditional watercolor techniques. 
• Transparent washes and glazes are used to describe the warm dramatic colors of these roses and create the supporting leaves.
• Work with a limited palette and add the final details such as honey bees and soft color accents to carry color and interest throughout this design.

***This painting packet has been created using Acrylic paints used as a traditional watercolor medium.   The techniques used are traditional water techniques.

Note: There are many short watercolor videos that were created by Neadeen Masters where she demonstrates these techniques used in this painting. These will be a good visual help while painting this design.
