JENS MALMGREN I create.

White Mallow

Such a nice flower this is, almost transparent and white, extremely white. So an aquarellist doesn’t add white when painting white. Instead it is about painting the other colors and using the white of the paper for the white color. Now an aquarellist just starting with acrylic paint is clueless. I looked at my tube of white paint and wondered if I dared to use it. But I did not. Yet.
