The fresh scent of lavender
Did you see my post this morning Lavender and coffee? I've spent today painting lavender, my drawing desk smells amazing! This painting is of fresh lavender, some dried lavender and dried poppy heads.
I started off the painting by applying a background colour of pale greens with acrylic paint. I then painted in the shapes of the dried poppy seed heads and the dried lavender.
I used a range of blue and purple hues and tints to build up the petals of the fresh lavender flowers.
