In this class, I'm thrilled to unveil my process for painting a true-to-life monarch butterfly. Did you know these butterflies boast an awe-inspiring migration pattern? They are renowned for their mesmerizing migration behaviors, making them an enchanting subject for artists. Together, we'll embark on a journey to capture the monarch's beauty step by step.
We'll start by outlining the butterfly's distinctive patterns, then use watery grey paint to shade the shadow beneath its delicate wings. Next, we'll apply bright yellows and oranges to infuse the wings with vibrant color, creating an iridescent effect.
As we progress, we'll layer darker tones to define the butterfly's body and intricate wing patterns, using short brushstrokes to mimic its textured appearance. Finally, we'll add final touches to enhance the realism of our masterpiece, ensuring every detail shines.
