Day 26 - watercolor amaranthus

Welcome to the 30 day watercolor flower guide 2024! It has been a few years since the first guide, and I thought it needed a major upgrade.

Kristin, thank you for painting this flower. This is my favorite flower and I grow it every year. Most of them come back on their own and have grown up to 5 feet in my yard. This particular type of Amaranthus is called Love Lies Bleeding. You painted yours exactly the way it looks. There's so much to learn and love about this plant. They are also edible. You painted these perfectly. Thank you.

An interesting flower. A simple break down of the approach. So accessible. 🙏🏼
