Mushroom family.

Hello friends, I just recently found out about hive.io, someone told me about it. At first I thought oh that’s something like steemit. I tried steemit for about two years with a break here and there, but it didn’t work for me that well. So here I thought, oh well, it’s probably another platform that will die eventually, and started powering down my hives (not super smart move, I know).

Then, today, out of boredom I was like, let me post something on hive. It took me some time to figure out how it works, because I stopped posting in general in fall.

Then next thing I see, people are upvoting!😀

I wasn’t expecting anything to happen really. So, I should agree hive won my heart, and I will start posting again. I’m so excited now to share my paintings and photos.

I want to share a watercolor painting of some mushroom family.

First, I did an outline with a pencil, which I then traced with a Micron liner.

Then, I painted bigger mushroom with brown and a mixture of brown with ochre yellow. I also started painting the leaves with light green.

After that I painted the background with light green. I did several layers, made sure I let them dry before applying next layer. I also added dark green to the leaves, to make them brighter.

Then, I started to work on the little mushroom, I used the same colors as for the big one.

There you go! Let me introduce you the Mushroom family!🙂

I hope you enjoyed the painting process.

Thank you for visiting my blog!
