Description: Happy spring! (Except where I live it's 97 degrees. Spring seemed to last about 3 days, and we're in the dog days of summer already.) Anyway, I'm very excited about the parrot tulips I planted last fall, and I've painted them before when I grew them at my old house. This video shows you my process. The video has been sped up 30 times, but I think you'll be able to see how I do it.
