Cow Parsley sketch

This real-time film shows me doing a botanical illustration of a Cow parsley plant Anthriscus sylvestris in watercolour. I begin with a detailed pencil drawing and finish with the completed sketch. A habit sketch shows the whole plant and is meant so be instantly recognizable as that plant. It isnt always as detailed as a close up botanical illustration. This plant is common in the UK but an invasive in Iceland. I discuss this in the film. The illustration is available to buy - heres the link to it on my website: Email me if youre interested on infolizzieharper.co.uk And theres a written blog to accompany the film here: I also reference another of my youtube films a few times: Painting white flowers: For more on painting white flowers look at my blog post: Equipment List Paper: Fluid 100 by Global arts Pencil: Pentel P205 HB lead Brush: Winsor Newton Series 7 sable size 1 Paints: Winsor Newton watercolours Colours used include: Vandyke brown Naples yellow yellow ochre Cerulean blue Cobalt blue Cobalt green Sap green Cadmium yellow light Purple Doctor Martins Hydrus Fine art watercolour inks: Hansa Yellow light Thanks for watching and do feel free to like and subscribe and to leave comments.
