Painting Leaves with Strong Highlights
I'm trying to give the leaves in this painting a strong, translucent glow. To do this, the highlights need to be fairly strong and clean - straight from the tube even. For the green highlights, I'm using Chrome Green and the yellows are Cadmium Yellow. Don't over-use your white as this washes the colours out.
