On the verge of giving up…

Color blending has been kicking my butt….

Somehow it went from “need more water”, ” need more water”….to…”too much water!”, “everything smushed together”
I repeatedly missed the sweet pots!

What a mess!!
Plus, I have no patients for the colors to dry out.

What have I learned from this one?
Wait longer for the background to dry. It also need more water to start with.
I know the tress branshes are done totally wrong. BUt I don’t know how to fix it.

This one?
Wrong colors for all of the flowers!
Leave blanks for lights.
Doing something about those edges/better definitions for the pedals.
