Dahlia Muchacha in Coloured Pencil Part 1
A botanical art tutorial by Emma Tildesley.
Novembers tutorial is the beginning of a beautiful Dahlia and the third flower in our build as you go composition. It is a very large bloom so as with the last CP Dahlia we did, we will be covering this over a couple of months. This month we will focus on the centre of the flower and achieving the depth of colour in its tightly packed petals.
Please be sure to check the materials list next month too as there may be new colours added.
