DescriptionHI here you will learn about using simple techniques to paint the Balinese Plumeria so hold my hand as we go hand in hand step-by-step to create a stunning painting. These beautiful flowers will not dissapoint anyone who attempts topaint them
We first add the basic wash leaving the highlights as white bare paper. The magic slowly happens as we start darkening the hues. In the last layer which is the third layer the flowers start popping out of the page.
My attempt has been to explain to you how and why the prayer basket is made - the significance of the symbolism of the placement of the flowers and leaves. For example the red flowers are placed in the south as a homage to one of the trimurti gods. The with the cultural significance, there develops an attachment to paint this subject matter. I hope my students feel that and that is what I attempt to do.
For those who love painting Balinese related watercolors please see my other classes. The Banana leaf is particularly interesting to paint.The advice I would give to
beginners is to go slow and paint the light areas first and slowly build your contrasting sharpen that feeling of depth.
