Spend a quiet moment in the garden and studio with me and a sketchbook. We'll start with observation of the plant in its environment, then we'll draw and paint some lavender flowers together, using several different methods.

Head to https://youtu.be/Axj7VBdTScg for a short video exploring lavender up close.
If you want more videos from the garden for painting inspiration, go to https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCviuuhePYrgIWsme2ArR1Fw where we have started to put content about our little druidic garden.

I used the following paints:

Quinacridone Purple: https://tinyurl.com/d28dpu5h
Quinacridone Gold https://tinyurl.com/2wjnfbpy
Cobalt Blue https://tinyurl.com/hrbmjtt8

Plus:

Faber Castell Albrecht Durer watercolour pencils 
Drawell size 7 round synthetic brush. 
Staedtler pigment liner 0.7mm
Basic sketchpad paper
