Thank you for this lesson, Debbie! I just discovered your channel and I'm finding it to be such a great resource to help me level up my painting. I've painted many value scales and completed drills on how to take my paints from light to dark and vice versa. But, I have SUCH a hard time incorporating that depth and contrast in my paintings. So I really enjoyed that you both taught and demonstrated how to apply the lesson in our work. Thanks again! 😍
My pleasure! It is how I too learn beat. I can understand Things cognitively but when I’m shown how to apply it, It clocks for me.. It makes me happy that it “clicked” for you too! Happy painting my artist friend 🎨🌸
Please do! It’s so much fun and so many different color combinations you can play with. Contrasting, monochrome, cool colors, warm Colors! The choices are seriously endless. It’s such a great exercise in getting to know and master color values! . Have fun most of all🌸🎨🌼
Me too!! I do too they are beautiful complementary colors again to work with, but have those nice warm undertones of reds in them so they’re so beautifully similar and coherent. I hope you have fun with this little exercise. It’s a great exercise to strengthen your ability to play with values. Happy painting, Froend, and most of all have fun.!
I’m So glad you find what Inshare useful and fun! I think this is such a Great, excercise and Values, and such an easy way to take care of paintings to the next level happy painting, friend and I hope you’re having a wonderful weekend as wellXo

Yes, I love how throughout the seasons everything changes color a bit doesn’t it and then of course, I love using my own magical colors and how I see the world in purple screens, blues, and pinks!🌸
You're so welcome! I use values, and varying the size of my petals and leaves to create more interest. Its an easy way to create lots of interest~ Happy painting :-) Most of all enjoy
You are so welcome! This is such a valuable practice with creating interest and depth. Fun to also repeat this practice with all different color combinations Enjoy!
This looks like such a great practice… I have issues with both values and leaf shapes and this will let me practice both. Love the color combination too… I am following your recommendation and using the Artisto pads… really nice to look back at all 5 (five! 😂) paintings I have done; hope to see some improvement by the time I get to the end of this pad.
Isn't it great fun? I love looking back through my books see how far i've come, new things I discovered (and maybe forgot years ago) For me it is also great reference, I try to put my books in season, value sheets, color mixes I like. Im so glad you like them too, Ive tried SO many over the years for my students and workshops. Happy painting friend most of all enjoy this lovely medium xo
I love painting leaves! This is going to be a very fun and valuable practice for me, thank you! At your suggestion I bought some Artisto pads and I love them! They are great quality for the money, and I don't feel like I'm wasting paper, when I'm doing certain things! I ordered some of the larger pads to see if I like them. I can let you know what they are like, if you'd like me to. 😊
I’m so glad you did. I feel the same Good quality but not a huge investment since I go through many pads weekly. I just ordered the bigger sheets too and can’t wait to get them. Yea, let me know what you think 🌸🎨
