Sunflower Paintings

LI: to paint a still life of sunflowers in the style of Vincent Van Gogh.

For Art we were painting sunflowers, in the style of Vincent Van Gogh. While painting we had to keep a lot of things in mind, to keep our paintings looking good. Our most important rule was to draw what we could see. Before actually painting we started practicing our toning, shading, and our brush strokes. We were also advised to blend our colors, stroke in one direction, don’t overload the brush with paint, and to make layers of paint to make a realistic looking sunflower.
