In today’s quick tutorial, weβre painting a fresh and vibrant Artistic Zucchini! π₯ This lesson is all about building rich, layered greens and yellows for a perfect garden look.
Iβll show you a fun trick using masking fluid to create those iconic white dotted textures on the skin. If you don’t have masking fluid, you can also use a white gel pen or paint for these final details! Weβll add cool shadows to ground the piece and finish with an optional black outline for a bold, graphic ‘pop.’ π¨β¨
