Painting Roses with Cherryl Meggs

Now that I've had a bit to practice and go thru the DVD study a few times I am ready to post the steps

First Fire: The three roses and the two rose buds are painted on this fire

White Rose: Sketched with paint - yellow red and orange for center and tan for rose petal outline
Working on center first place yellow red and orange.
Cross-hatch mixing yellow, soft pink and blue green around in petal areas

Pink Rose: sketch using soft pink
Soft rose is used for center and shadow areas of rose
Soft pink is used for all other areas

Turn Back Rose: Sketch with ruby
Use ruby purple and Ruby D'Or to block in petals

Buds: Are painted with soft rose

Now it's time to go back and wipe out petals on all roses making certain to wipe out for light areas, too.

Take paper towel to wipe out even more highlights on white rose.

For calix use yellow green and Cherryl's antique green mix. wipe out highlights

Fire: .015
