Lachri Fine Art | Step by Step Painting Lesson Bumblebee - Fluffy bee @Lachri | Uploaded March 2023 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.
I'm starting this painting with an airbrushed background. I prepainted my canvas olive green and used tracing and transfer paper to transfer my drawing cleanly onto my canvas. The hand painted bee portion of this painting is at 28 minutes if you would like to skip to that portion. I will show you how I layer my colors and blend them to achieve realistic looking bee and out of focus flowers.
