Brilliant! Your cherry blossoms look so delicate. I like your background, you did just fine without having the same colors from the tutorial.sorry Terri - i had to paint another one - now you’re really going to have to step it up. I think I’m a bit obsessed with painting cherry blossoms right now. This one is from a tutorial on YouTube. I wanted to try an “atmospheric” background. I didn’t have indigo so tried to make my own with pthalo blue and Payne’s grey. I didn’t go dark enough. But I’m happy with the flowers - I like the white with the darker stamens.

I hope to finish mine tomorrow. I ended up with a strange composition from mashing together a couple of ref photos, but I'll get it done. It's great to be playing with the oil pastels again, despite being so out of practice!
