Fun Watercolor Technique Plastic Wrap (cling film) Hydrangea Painting

FUN WATERCOLOR TECHNIQUE PLASTIC WRAP | HYDRANGEA PAINTING

I wanted to share a fun watercolor technique with you today. It’s a bit unusual for me because I usually just use the paint and because it uses a kitchen supply you probably already have - cling film (plastic wrap).

When I paint flowers (or anything for that matter) I go for a loose expressive style rather than a realistic botanical sort of approach. But one of the things I really like about hydrangeas is their composite blooms and that is not something I really focus on in my usual loose style. Today I want to use a bit of negative painting to bring out some of the tiny individual flowers in the composite blossom. To give me a bit of a head start I am going to use cling film (or plastic wrap) in a first layer.

It requires juicy paint and considerably patience to let that first layer dry under the scrunched cling film. Once that layer is dry the effect is a variety of random shapes that I can build on to create a little more of the detail in the flower with negative painting.

This blog post will tell you more about the fun watercolor technique of using cling film in your first layer.
