A still life is more than painting objects—it's about observing light, shape, and colour with patience. A few tips for my learners: ✨ Start with a light pencil sketch. 💧 Use clean water for fresh, transparent washes. 🎨 Paint from light to dark and build layers gradually. 🖌️ Let each layer dry before adding the next to avoid muddy colours. 👀 Keep your highlights by preserving the white of the paper. 🌸 Most importantly, enjoy the process—every painting teaches you something new. Practice consistently, trust the flow of water, and let every brushstroke help you grow. Happy painting! 💙
