This tulip tree was a Mother's day gift years ago - and I LOVE painting it each spring as it grows and bursts with blooms! I started with an ink sketch with an extra fine nib - rare for me, but I'm learning to add it to the mix. More often than not, I am using a medium or even a broad nib, for my ink work. Next, I added watercolor to the masses. I realized today that I haven't used my gouache set in a while, so I even added a little gouache for extra chroma. It is relatively new to me, and I had forgotten about it for months. Well, it is now back in rotation for the spring! Painting number 3751 in 3751 days.
