Colors for this page
A single tulip is shown from flower to bulb, including its fine roots. The vertical composition connects the bloom above ground with the plant's hidden base.
- Tulip yellow
- Leaf green
- Bulb ochre
A suggested palette; it does not have to match the example exactly.
- Color the single bloom yellow, following each petal boundary.
- Fill the leaves and stem with green.
- Use ochre on the bulb and leave the thinnest root lines white.
A simpler way to color
Skip shading and use yellow for the bloom, green for leaves and stem, and ochre for bulb and roots.
Level of detail: The bloom and leaves are open shapes, while the roots are thin and closely spaced.
Talk about it: What changes do you think happened underground before this tulip opened?
