Splendor Starting the Blossoms

by Marcia Minnichhofer on 04/15/17

I have started the blossoms with shadows and centers. Some of the shadows are coming through the petals from behind them and I have to be careful that there are no shadows from leaves I have eliminated from the reference photo. I took a closeup photo this morning because the lighting was perfect for pictures. The yellows are the first glazes on the leaves.  Since this variety of plumeria has a pink band on one side of the petals, I may add them back in where they have faded in the photo. This will help separate petals and blossoms next to each other.
