If you take one look at a subject and think... No Way!! - this is the tutorial for you - At first glance, this thistle seems almost too complex to paint, but every detail has its place. when you break it down it's simply a collection of repeating shapes built up one layer at a time. Watch as the delicate purple tubes gradually build into a vibrant flower while the sharp, sculptural spines are layered to create texture, contrast and depth. This is a great exercise in observation, patience and simplifying complexity. If you'd like to paint this yourself, the complete tutorial is available inside the Watercolour Members Club, where you'll find full step-by-step instruction, detailed guidance, and a growing library of botanical watercolour tutorials suitable for a range of skill levels.
