Nicky starts by spraying her canvas with water and dropping in blue High Flow acrylics by Golden.
She drops in more colours allowing them to run and spread to create a background.
When the background is dry Nicky explains the next step to create her Sunflowers
Nicky draws her Sunflower onto of the background
She then uses a thick mix of acrylic paint and applies this with a palette knife to her drawing.
The Sunflower head is completed.
Nicky then continues with the leaves and stalk still using a palette knife.
Some detail is added to the Sunflower.
