How to Paint Rain Drops
My gift to you this Holiday Season is a video demo on how to paint rain drops (or Hawaiian snow) on a red hibiscus using watercolors.
This technique can be used on just about any flower. First, finish painting the flower including any shading and highlights. Second, make sure it is dry. Next, start the rain drop technique I demonstrate in the video to create lovely, three dimensional rain drops.
Aloha and Mahalo!

Beautiful, Marionette! I always wondered how artists made translucent rain drops and grapes. Thank you for sharing this technique!
lovely tutorial, Marionette! Mahalo, and Merry Christmas to you!
Great demonstration! It looks SO lifelike! Mahalo for sharing your technique and MELE KALIKIMAKA!!!
Mahalo ; ) I loved it. Also makes me very homesick for Kauai. Been there 14 times, but not in the past two years, my hubby died at age 48.
He truly loved that Island with all his heart.
Aloha,

Mele Kalikimaka and mahalo again for a great demo. Always makes me want to go to the drawing board. My Chicken has a place of honor in the kitchen! See you next year!

You are an excellent teacher, Marionette--thank you for a helpful demonstration. I also loved seeing your post from your silk painting class a few posts ago. How I wish I could join you sometime--I have always wanted to try some silk painting, and I know your step-by-step teaching would give me a great start.
