Topic: Week 2 Questions and Discussion

Welcome to the lesson two! Feel free to ask anything about lesson two here.
If painting the veins dark pink or green, when should they be added? p.s. after lesson 2, I have better appreciation of caladiums. 😊
Hi Facets! Glad you liked 'em. 😊 I normally paint the veins in Dark pink - using a more pigmented mixture of the Vibrant Pink Background. Here is an artwork where I painted the veins for your reference.
I paint the veins as my last step - once I've finished all my layers. 😊
Thank you Tin for the vein tips.

Adding the vein colors was fun! Thank you for that tip!
I love your work! I like what you did with the veins too! 😊
Hi Tin! This was a very therapeutic lesson for me although I do still have to remind myself to alternate brushes to achieve the graded wash… sometimes with better results than others. Here are my caladiums. I didn’t use gouache as I am traveling with limited watercolours.
