This sheet shows three different flowers drawn carefully. On the left is a tall blue one with thin stems. In the middle is a pink cluster with long, skinny leaves. On the right is a small purple flower with yellow inside and broad leaves. Each plant is labeled with a number. The colors are soft and the lines are neat, like a science book. Look up watercolor to see how artists use layers of paint to make colors glow.
