"Painting tip- Capturing the right colour for flowers is hard, but worth struggling to get right. I repainted these foxgloves three times before I was happy with them." Sue Newham

We took many photographs and then I started to paint the scene at home.

"Painting tip- Create depth in a scene by making objects in the background more muted in colour." Sue Newham

]]> “It is no small thing to paint a meadow, as every plant has to be painted in from the background forwards, paying attention to scale and perspective and making more distant flowers more muted. It’s not surprising that I ran out of enthusiasm half way down the painting and it remained unfinished for quite a while! However, I rose to the challenge once more and am very pleased with the result.” Sue Newham
