Came across a lovely painting of cyclamen in Ros Jenke's journal and I was inspired to try and paint my own version.
This was both drawn and painted very loosely - it wasn't a completely blind contour drawing but pretty close LOL. Colours used are Sap green, ultramarine blue, quinacridone magenta and just a few touches of raw sienna. Took about 30 minutes in total, including drying time.
Quick sketches like this are an excellent way to warm up my painting brain and to remember to not take myself so seriously sometimes. I need to remember to do more of this. Yeh, yeh, I've said it before but I'm going to really try and remember it this time LOL.
