Watercolour Challenge 277: Chocolate Easter Egg in a foil wrapper part 2 of 2 (Patreon)
Content
Hi everyone, we're finishing off the chocolate egg today! (part one is here) Whether you celebrate Easter or not, there are some really interesting techniques and challenges in this piece: how to capture the reflective surface of foil, and the richness of chocolate whilst keeping a nice shine. The other thing I will say is the piece is easier than it looks.
I have provided an accompanying post with a PDF line drawing download for the Watercolour Challenges which you can find here.
Sweet Pea tier members can opt to buy the individual line drawing downloads on a case by case basis. For Wild Rose and Cherry Blossom members the line drawing is free of charge - included in your monthly subscription.
