Progress on the Prickly Poppy painting
I am adding a little here and a little there.....
- I am adding some angular shadow shapes on the white petals to show the crinkly, paper-like structure
- I added deeper shadows to the right side of the yellow poofy stamen cluster
- I did a little negative painting to the leaves and stems at the left side
- Then I deepened the colors of the poppy and leaves on the left to make them in shadow
- I used a "scrubber" to soften the left edge of the shadow flower to see if it worked before I do the rest

Beautiful!! I love these poppies, and hope we have some this next year , didn't this year. Really a great job on this one!
This is so cool! I love the yellow poofy part. And the crinkly part. And, well, the whole thing!
