How To Paint Violets

10 Amazing (and Easy!) Tutorials

Introduction

Painting violets always seemed very simple to me. I mean, how hard can it be to coat a flower drawing with violet paint, right? Well, turns out things are a bit more complicated that, if you’re looking to bring perfection to your painting. This was something I really wasn’t that aware about, but thankfully, I happened to check a few videos on YouTube on how to paint violets. These videos helped me understand the process, and I think you too should give them a look, in case you’re eager to paint violets yourself.

To paint violets, you first prepare a color palette, and then set up the composition of your artwork. The color palette is such that it should complement the violet color of the flower, and will mostly be used for shading purposes. Once that’s done, you simply pick up your brush, and start painting.

This painting demonstration gives simplicity a new meaning. It’s basically giving you a blur idea of a violet field, rather than painting the whole thing. These artworks are usually accompanied by a second subject, which is usually the center focus for that painting. Apart from that, I don’t think this sort of painting will come of any other use. But I still think it’s something worth trying, given that you might need it in the background of another painting.
