Hello Friends & Happy 5 Step Friday.. (Night!)

This week we’re painting a pretty fall wreath with Black Eyed Susans, colorful fall leaves, flowers and berries.. of course, I couldn’t resist adding some metallic gold at the end! ✨ Totally optional, but SO pretty!

I thought it would be fun to carry the Black Eyed Susans over from last week’s tutorial and work them into something completely different.

Before we get into Step One, we’re spending a few minutes playing with color. I’ll show you how I use complementary colors to deepen and mute brighter colors into those really pretty fall shades, along with some of my favorite burgundy mixtures for mums and dahlias.

We’ll also do a quick leaf warm-up and play with a couple of different brushes before we start the wreath.

As always, I broke the whole thing down into 5 simple photo steps for you below!
