Introduction
Lilacs are some of the most beautiful flowers that you’ll ever see. There’s something about them that makes you want to snap a picture, or just paint them on a canvas. I personally prefer the latter, and hence, I started to work on my own lilac painting. Of course, like many others out there, I too was a bit low on confidence at first, since I didn’t know where to start. After pondering over this for a good period of time, I finally decided to study a few tutorials, and get working on my lilac painting.
To paint lilacs, you first need to choose a color palette, which will mostly consist of shades of blue, pink, purple, and other variants of these colors. Then, you pick a medium, which is either acrylics, or watercolors. Finally, you get everything ready, and start working on the painting.
