Paint a Loose Sunflower, Bird and Bee

Late summer and the sunflowers are at their best – at least for the birds! Finches galore are feasting on the seeds to fatten themselves up for the winter! Let’s celebrate the fall season of riches with a beautiful sunny painting of a ripe sunflower, greenfinch and bumble bee!

You can download the sketch for this painting from here as well as those for all the videos we’ve done over the last year. They are free to download, although we do appreciate your generous offering of a tip, if you feel it’s appropriate.

We also now have a range of mugs which feature my paintings available here for purchase.

Paint a Loose Sunflower, Bird and Bee

The Viviva colorsheets would be ideal to paint a loose sunflower, bird and bee, and would give a very vibrant, stunning effect. You would use Dusk Orange, Chrome Yellow and Yellow Ochre for the petals, Sap Green and Violet for the leaves and the bird.

I can’t wait to use my set to paint the rest of the autumn foliage I’m planning on capturing in these bright and attractive colors.

  1. Hi,
    I came to this page for the materials you used but for some reason it’s blank. I’ll try your blog too but thought I’d let you know. I’ve upgraded to the next level which I think it relaxed but I couldn’t download the sketch without paying which is fine as it’s only a couple of pounds but again thought I’d let you know.
    Much love

    1. Hi Fiona, thanks for your comment. The materials on this post weren’t displaying correctly because they were using a system of embedding links which Amazon broke a while back. I hope you found what you needed in the description of the video tutorial on YouTube, but if not let me know and I’ll try to help. Re the sketches, this is because of a change to our system since 2021. Free sketches are now available from within a secure credit download system on the website. To access them you just need to get a Studio Insiders Pass. It’s a one-off $5 purchase, and it gives you 10 free sketch credits every month. If you go to Sketches –> Sketches for YouTube Tutorials you’ll see info about it and the link you need to get one.
