This dragonfly teased me all
morning at the Woodlands near Houston Texas. Across from the
Marriott, there was this little oasis - a koi pond with water lilies
that grew on either side of a bridge. As soon as I'd spy a dragonfly
and zoom in or get close the dang this would zip away. Not only were
they fast, but the weather was incredibly humid, and I had to keep
wiping the lens of my camera as everything would just fog up. The most recent image of where we left off from class will always be posted directly below ....

Using Indanthrene Blue, I first
added a very light amount to the "anthers" of the flowers, and then
when that was dry I added a light amount of Transparent Yellow to
the "stamens" as shown. When the "parts" were dry, I then wet the petals and dropped Indanthrene Blue into each petal shape as shown. Keep an eye on your edges, some petal edges are white, while others will move to the darks. |
