Mimosa -- Back to using paintbrushes

I had fun doing botanical sketches, and some more, but acrylic markers felt a bit limited. I had recently started following a dozen artists and tags on instagram that did botanical art, and I was feeling inspired to try out some paintbrushes.

I went through my “saved” posts, and found this “making of” a mimosa branch

And I decided to try it out

It was “okey” I thought, but it made me want to do something of my own. So I looked up images of mimosa trees and branches, and I created my first original painting!

I am very proud of the result <3 and I hope you like it, too.
