Color or paint an impressionist flower painting along with me

MHA_flowerpainting-01.jpg

Hey guys, I hope you had a great weekend! I finished up a video for you over my weekend. I hope it’s something that makes it easier to have fun painting without worrying about getting started with a drawing. I have coloring pages/drawings for you to print out and then follow along a video and paint with me.

Below is the first coloring page/drawing that I have available!

You can download the drawing here.

I’ve been making these coloring pages for my girls and sometimes they paint or color on them. We have lots of fun painting together. You can try it with your kids or just for yourself! If you’re on my email list (you can subscribe on my website), you’ll get a special email with the printout and a link to the video. Yay you guys, this was fun to make! I hope you’ll try it out and if you do, please tag me on Instagram @melissaharrellart or #MelissaHarrellArt because I would LOVE to see.
