Immature Crab Apples in Watercolour

A botanical art tutorial by Emma Tildesley.

We are revisiting our Crab Apple Study Page in watercolour this month and adding in some lovely immature Crab Apples.

We are painting these a little larger than life so that we can get all that hairy detail in.

Happy Painting.
