How to Paint a Watercolour Cosmos - Painting White Petals on White Paper

Flowers and Foliage episode 22: How to Paint a Watercolour Cosmos

Here is a brand new flower painting tutorial that looks at painting white petals on white paper. We've already tried this technique with my watercolour Daisy tutorial, and now you can try it with the much larger petals of this Japanese Cosmos flower.
