49/100 tiny painting challenge for 2025 (Patreon)

Sunflowers in a basket for painting 49! I had a special request to learn basket weave designs and this is the easiest way I have found to do it. Keep to the shapes as you do light and dark, let the v shapes touch and leave a bit of what space. I like to paint the flowers first so I can paint the basket around them and not have any color overlap. I can't wait to see how you do with this one! Please let me know if you have any questions.

Paper: arches 140 lb cotton 9X12" paper that I've cut into 3X3" pieces, giving me 12 pieces per page.

Paint: The palette I'm using today is the split primary palette by letter sparrow: cad yellow deep, lemon yellow, cad red, magenta, ultramarine blue, cerulean(probably closer to phthalo blue), indigo and sap green. I don't use all the colors, but I will name them as I mix them. Feel free to use pre mixed convenience colors as well.

Brushes: round 4 - Princeton brand
