Landscape painting with fields of flowers - a tricky business Hi Olly and the rest of the forum ☺️ Olly, you mentioned in your last tutorial on YouTube that we should try painting a landscape from a photo we took ourselves. This is a painting of the Cedarberg region in the Western Cape of South Africa. Normally a dry and semi-arid landscape, this area turns into fields of flowers at the beginning of spring. Painting fields of flowers is tricky. Firstly because I wanted to try and maintain some translucency but create texture and vibrancy at the same time. Instead of using masking fluid to create individual daisies, I tried the salt technique and then filled in where it was a bit stark. I’m open to feedback and suggestions of perhaps a better technique, colour use etc. Thank you! Rachel Winstanley from South Africa
