This week in art class: droplets

on a leaf.  Plus, because I became bored with droplets and leaf textures towards the end of the day, a ladybird.

The technique is surprisingly simple: the leaf was harder to paint than the droplets! I'm really pleased I learned how to do it.

Actually, the hardest bit was trying to take a photo close enough to a leaf to act as a reference. I didn't really succeed and so my leaf does not look much like alchemilla mollis, but I think it could be a mallow of some kind (even if it didn't start as one!)
