Beautiful Baptisia
"Clare, My three year old Baptista finally bloomed this year but just one stem. Lots of green very little indigo. Any suggestions?"
Flowers are fun and challenging to paint
You have to work fast to capture a flower in a painting because it might be gone the next day.
Sometimes I shoot a photo for reference to finish the painting if I don't get all the details done at once or if the mosquitos or heat or sun are too much to take outside.

I do best if I have the photo in front of me. Many times I will take several photos of mine and take something from each of them to create a different picture.

photos are great references, but it is great to paint outside if not too buggy
