Video: Cosmos Exercise

Video: Cosmos Exercise

Hazel Scott

Because @alara_arts getting on Yuko Nagayama exercises reminded me that I've not actually finished the 12 lessons, I got back into it with Lesson 11: Painting Cosmos in Scenery.

Granting you're into the Yuko Nagayama style and/or botanicals, if you can find this book, it’s worth grabbing a copy of, IMHO. The lessons are pretty awesome, this exercise took only 45 minutes!

After seeing that the timelapse got over 22K views on Instagram, I thought I'd post a slightly slower video. I'm unable to post steps for obvious copyright reasons, but I'm sharing my version since it's really still 1,000 practice sessions away from getting close to Nagayama's amazingness! :)
