Hello fellow painters, this weeks tutorial is a Holly sprig with some lovely berries and a paper tag tied with string. Holly is 'so winter', evocative of cold crisp days and holida y decor. I have chosen this as it's a subject that nearly everyone has a go at and can often be quite a tricky thing to do well; the leaves must be shiny and the points must be sharp (I sound like my primary school ballet teacher, who alas was on the road to nowhere teaching me to dance!). Anyway give this a go, even if it's just one leaf, put on your favourite music and off we go. Warm wishes and happy practice, Billy x Show more
