Lily Pads

Materials:
hb pencil, 2b pencil, 4b pencil, acrylic paint on canvas

Process:
I began with a sketch of my final piece. I knew I wanted lily pads, lilies, and bubbles, along with water. So, once it was roughly drawn, I used acrylic paint to bring more vibrance and more color. The colors varied from shades of green, blue, pink, and purple (also white). Something I was able to experiment with in this art piece was shading with white to lessen the color of dark colors as well as to blend further. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to complete it fully as I wanted to add more details with a gel pen and make the bubbles appear more.

Ideas:
lily pads of all sizes and different colors. Also, many different flowers yet simple with only 4 designs. "Moving" water with plenty of shades of blue. Bubbles and stars to add more detail and grasp the audeinvce eyes.
