Painting inspired by Georgia O'Keefe!
- Draw a dot or circle in the middle of a canvas board or paper using pencil.
- From that circle draw lines radiating out to the edge. Make lines curved or straight with some long and some shorter.
- Draw the outside edge connecting all of the lines. As you can see in Georgia O'Keefe's painting, that line is very curvy and forms the petals.
- Using acrylic paint (watercolor or tempera will work fine also) paint the flower. Start with the lightest colors first. Have fun picking your own colors, using the painting above as a guide.

Winter Sunsets
- With pencil, draw the line that will separate the sky from the hill.
- Paint the house, trees, and bushes on top of the hill using black acrylic paint. It is very important to use acrylic paint and not tempera since the acrylic acts as a resist for the watercolor.
- Also paint the texture on the hill with short black brushstrokes. (Again acrylic)
- Then with watercolor paints, start with a wet wash of blue at the top. Continue down the sky towards the top of the hill using red, oranges, and yellow or any other combination.
- Pick a color( red, orange, blue, or yellow) that will act as the reflection of the sunset on snow and create a watered down wash. In these paintings a watered down wash of red was used.
- Add any finishing touches and you're done!
