Materials:

  • Violet acrylic paint
  • Lime green acrylic paint
  • Cyanine green acrylic paint
  • White acrylic paint
  • Water
  • A cotton swab or Q-tip
  • Paintbrush with thin tips
  • Dotting tool
  • Canvas

Directions:

Step 1

Put large dots of violet acrylic paint and water mixture in your canvas, then grab a cotton swab or Q-tip, and from the center push the paint outward to create the petals. Do this all around the dot until the flower is complete, then do this to the rest of the dots as well.

Step 2

Using a thin paintbrush, mix together some of the greens, then paint the stem, and add small branches to those stems. Add a small green bud on each end of the stem branches, then add a small bud of violet at the top of the green bud, and add white dots all over the center of the flowers.
