See these principles in action in the video below and remember them for your next painting session!Ġ0:39 – First Principle of Watercolor Flowers (Shape) Composition: My best tip is to split your paper into quadrants and paint floral shapes that follow an S-curve.You want to add different perspectives so your piece has more movement and dimension. Perspective: Flowers aren’t always facing you directly! You could be looking at them from the top-down or from the side.Another way to add details is to come back after painting the watercolor layers and finish your piece with details in white gouache! If we add that blackish purple center too soon while the petals are super wet, then it will just bloom and blob. Think about an anemone and its dark center. Detail: Add detail at the right time and the right place.You need white space-not too much!-to differentiate petals and and layers so it doesn’t look like a blobby cloud. White Space: This is SO important, especially for loose-style watercolor.All the petals should be pointing back to this anchor point! Anchor Point: If you’re painting a star-shaped flower, your anchor point is where that center stamen is.Shape: Before you even start painting, you want to think about the basic shape of that flower-whether it be a bell-shaped, cone-shaped, star-shaped, fan-shaped, etc.I want to tell you about my top 5 principles that will transform your watercolor flowers. If you’ve been watching tutorials on YouTube to help you paint flowers and you’re not pleased with the outcome, you’ve come to the right place. Do you struggle with painting watercolor flowers?
