Here's a sped up video of me painting the last few leaves on this Aeonium. This is the base layer of color, once it's dry I will usually go back and paint one or two more layers of detail on top.

Many thanks to @plantshednyc for inviting me to a terrarium workshop at their new Columbus Avenue location! These succulents were so beautiful I had to paint at least a few of them, starting with this Echeveria purpusorum. If you're in New York City, check out both Upper West Side shops, they have a great selection of plants and containers (like this pink one), and the new location has a coffee bar!

This tiny Echeveria setosa var. deminuta was an interesting challenge to capture in watercolor because of all the fuzzy little details!
