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.

I love hearing the birds happily chirping in the garden.
