You would be right of course but for a short while we must take a clinical look however brief at a few basic facts. You cannot build a house successfully without first drawing your plans and becoming familiar with the general shape or if you do you will probably get your angles wrong and then nothing will fit together. The same principle applies when you are building up a picture of a plant. So start by practising basic shapes. Your subsequent free-style drawings will be so much easier to do and your leaves will be in correct perspective with accurately placed lines an not - as so often happens in paintings suffering from dislocated joints and fractured midribs inflicted by the artist through lack of knowledge or through carelessness. These mistakes can be avoided if you learn to look. Stop rushing about pause and really look at a flower any flower even a common daisy is beautiful if you examine it closely. It is not really essential to study botany to become a good painter of wild flowers but a little learning in this case is not a dangerous thing and the facts of plant life are so fascinating and intriguing that I hope you will not be able to resist buying a field guide to wild flowers - one of mine. I trust - which will help you identify individual species a correctly named flower is far more interesting to paint than an unnamed weed . Look at the general shape of your plant see how the leaves spread their flat surfaces not their edges to the sky and how they are arranged on the stem so that as many as possible can receive the maximum amount of the solar energy required to keep the plant growing well. In fig. 20 below you will see how plants achieve this by various standard methods each leaf placed where it will receive some light without shading the one below. Then look at the stem of your plant see .
