To the artist, Spring is a palette of color explosion to paint and we immediately think of what paint colors to mix and the techniques to capture these vibrant colors.
Drawing is important to plan the design and composition using a sketch book, then the real fun begins when we put the drawing on paper and begin to paint.
Come join me on this art adventure of learning to paint spring by learning the following:
