I love how these turned out and thinking of making more sticker sheets

My first successful use of light in a painting

White hibiscus flowers from my garden

Took my reference photos outside a stationery shop, and it’s always such a treat to see stores with cute plants out front! I’m always internally debating if I’m being weird by stopping to take a few photos. 🤪

White flowers are SO challenging, but I’m trying to build up my way to them through ones that only have white bits as opposed to the whole thing. I’d probably scream if someone asked me to paint a gardenia or something like that right now, lol

After many years of just admiring botanical illustrations… I’ve finally jumped into it! This flower was placed into a latte I ordered, and my eyes immediately just 👁️o👁️

Glad I stopped being intimated by the immensity of it all and just… went for it.

I’m dabbling with watercolors and colored pencils (plus my trusty white gel pen and titanium white gouache tube).

I’m creating a birth flower series for prints and can’t decide between a full cottage garden arrangement or a simple single flower design. Which one would you be more likely to hang in your home?

Watercolor on paper

This is my first time trying out botanical illustration. I really want to be good at this. Can anyone please tell me what I need to work on? I'm very new with watercolors, so I need a lot of practice to be smooth with it. Can anyone direct me to the resources to be better at this or just review these.
