Find reference of a close up flower and download it to your take a close up photo of a flower with your phone or iPad, crop the area that you want to use as reference. O’Keeffe always painted off the edge of her canvas and you will too so make sure the flower/flowers design falls off the page.
Look at the color reference of your flower and identify key colors that you see and create a color plan using a scrap piece of watercolor paper and paint or drawing paper and colored pencils. Remember to add water to create lighter versions of your colors if using watercolor and vary pressure and layering of colored pencils.
