2. Complete more petals rotating in a circle Don’t worry so much around messing up, you can move quickly as the leaves will fill in to even out.

3 Using the medium round brush, add the leaves in around the flower. Start at the middle of the flower then flick brush out to the tip of where you want your leaf. Repeat on each side.  Using the berry wine color, add a cluster of dots in the center of the flower. Add tiny tear drops over each leaf.

4. Add a series of swirls. Start with the metallic green and add a thick swirl to the top and bottom. Next, add a tough of light green.

5. Using the smaller round brush, add white details to the design. Add various expressive swirls around the flower. Add a series of tear drops between the leaves and vine. Add some white over the flower as well, and a few white dots in the center.

5. Outline the design in black. There is a simple and quick flower!
