Thank you for this tutorial. I have your second book, I attempted this flower today but did not like how it came out. Now I know what I did wrong.

Thankyou Sandrine - very clear and very helpful 🙂 Do you wait for the vein paint to dry before softening with water? TIA.

[@AtelierSandrineMaugy]

Yes, I do... Otherwise they might disappear altogether and also blend too much into the yellow, making it dirty.

What size and specific brush are you using? Thank you!

[@AtelierSandrineMaugy]

I like Pro Arte Prolene Plus series 007. For a subject this small, I use a range from 3/0 for the tiny details to size 4 for the larger washes, and a size 2 in between.
