Every year my Hellebores just delight me and I just have to paint their portrait.
Starting with a water colour pencil I draw the hellebore from life on a 425gsm Bockingford rough paper.
I build up each application of watercolour paint as you see here.
The colours I use are lemon yellow, ultramarine blue, burnt sienna and quinacridone magenta.
I hope you enjoy trying this painting for yourself Claire.
