I had some paint left on my pallet from the lemons and barn, and I had a small canvas board, so I decided to do some experimenting. I covered the board with a dark green (lots of pthalo blue, cad yellow and a hint of cad red) and a few lighter "leaves" (really just two strokes with a number 6 round brush). Once that was dry (about 15 minutes) I began creating circles with a stiff bristle round brush. Just "smooshing" in alternatating bands of napthal red and titanium white; letting the color blend together.
I love it. In fact, the next day I did the same thing (except adding cobalt blue to the red to creat a purple rose) on a piece of card stock and sent it to my siste-in-law for her birthday.
