Bell flower by Shanti Marie

Bell flower

Working with some new reds, I have found this red has a bit of grit to it or as they say "sediment" It may be more ideally suited for landscapes or brick walls that sort of thing. Flowers tend to be painted with transparent dye type paints. They usually give very clean clear washes without too much body. I like the pink... it's very soft and would make some great pink roses. I'll have to look up the names for these paints colors for you.. I'll try to do that later today. check back for the updates.
