67/100 tiny painting challenge for 2026 (Patreon)

Purple cactus for #67! We are going to paint each paddle in the cactus one at a time with a green to purple variegated wash. Purple and green go so well together and I also get to finally use my new cyan today: Holbein manganese! 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: For this project I am using a split primary palette- cad yellow deep, lemon yellow, cad red, perm. rose, ultramarine blue, manganese, indigo and sap green. The colors I'm using today are - Perm rose, lemon yellow, manganese and indigo.

Brushes: round 4 & 10 - Princeton
