My Sketchbook Life #63 (Patreon)

Used a new technique in this wonderful field of poppies❤️ I started with an undertone first and then slowly added all the watercolor layers on top. Honestly, it felt so relaxing to paint this way! When the first soft color wash is already there, the white paper doesn’t feel intimidating anymore and everything flows much more naturally.

This undertone also helps connect all the colors together and makes the whole sketch feel more harmonious. Even bright reds, greens and warm shadows blend together more softly instead of competing with each other. What do you think about the result?☺️
