Vibrant Lily - Limited Palette of 3 Colors
Vibrant Lily - Painted with Only 3 Colors
This stunning lily was created using just three watercolor pigments, proving that a limited palette can produce incredibly vibrant and lively results. All the rich hues you see—from deep magenta to vivid greens—were mixed from a carefully selected primary triad, ensuring perfect color harmony and clean, mud-free mixes. The fine gold accents were preserved using masking fluid applied before painting.
