They are really fun to paint, thank you Brenda for sharing the video, I just didn't find the leaves very realistic, geraniums have scalloped leaves but I've painted like she did, after all it's a pot with a floral plant

Very lovely geraniums and I love that perfect painted pot...shaded and shaped perfectly, I know what you mean about the leaves and I did try to paint some like I see them...guess it is just art. I did see another geranium video this artist did and she painted the leaves as I know them.

You captured the beauty of the geraniums of the artists with your shading. I agree with you about the shape of the leaves, but like you I followed her take on them. Thanks for sharing your talents with us.

Lovely painting, Anita. Your pot is fabulous, and your flowers and splatter are pretty. I too struggled with the leaves and changed mine up - they ended up being my least favorite part so maybe I should have stuck with her version. Hugz

Gorgeous! You did really well on the shading of the flowers and the pot. I know what you mean about the leaves..they should be scalloped. What do we know, huh?..lol

This is beautiful, Anita . . .I think most of us are more familiar with the round leafed geraniums but when I googled them there was actually ONE pic with pointy leaves . . .Love the way you did the pot with just the hint of pink in it.
