Paint Party Friday - Tulips and Forsythia


Welcome to Paint Party Friday! This piece, called 'Tulips and Forsythia' is done on cardstock with my permanent colouring markers (4 1/2" x 6 1/2"). It is inspired by a photo I took, although the tulips were more of a pale green at the time and I added the yellow forsythia bush for added colour contrast.

  10. Nice balance to your lovely painting of tulips and forsythia.I love both plants, but so do the deer around here. I hardly had any forsythia blossoms b/c they must be ice cream for deer.
