Learn How To Paint Birds of Paradise Florals | Watercolor Painting by Sarah Cray and Let's Make Art

Find all the watercolor art supplies used to create the Birds of Paradise watercolor painting here ➝ https://letsmakeart.com/birdsofparadise

The Bird-of-Paradise is named for its striking appearance and resemblance to a tropical bird. Most well known for its long stem and bright orange and blue petals. In this tutorial we'll focus on embracing the characteristics of watercolor we love so much. While painting this project, work on putting the color in and allowing your paints to blend and move. Our watercolors are going to do the heavy lifting for us in this project. Then at the end learn how to incorporate a dagger brush to tighten up your painting with detail lines.
