Hmmm. Not so sure that this is going anywhere good. I added veins to the leaves, and then shadows within the tulip itself. The fact is, there are not really any shadows in the picture I am using, so these are totally non-existent. I made them up.
I kind of like the veins. The shadows, though, are weak. I need to do something here – as far as I am concerned, I messed it up big time!
On the other hand, two positives. First, no mud. Second, I am painting.
