So you have painted now your beautiful flower, have added the leaves and the background. But is your flower painting finished? Check list for a successful flower painting

CHECK LIST for a professional flower painting:

  • Is your flower integrated in the background?
  • Have you used some of your background colour on your flower?
  • Have you used some of your flower colour in the background and on the leaves?
  • Do the leaves support your flower or do they take the attention away?
  • Do you have a focal point?
  • Are there variations in your whites / highlights?
  • Has your flower depth?
  • Is your flower glowing?
  • Have you used colour temperature to get the three dimensional form? Warm against cool?
