Digital art_2022. Half Moon Wreath Hi friends! I'm still inspired by Christmas themes - we still have a festive mood in the air and even Christmas trees are still standing in apartments. It was a task for an art contest - it was necessary to draw a **Winter Flower**. And what flower is more wintery than poinsettia?
Sketch in **Paint Tool SAI 2** I looked at many different types of Christmas wreaths and concluded that human imagination has no limits. I chose from different photos a few elements that I liked. For example, I liked the crescent-shaped wreath. As well as a house, Christmas trees, an owl and Christmas toys... Something like this I will draw
Choosing a base colors. I decided that I won’t have saturated objects here, everything will be in pastel light colors and in many shades of white
Chose a tint color of half moon
I decided to draw a blue wood door as a background for the wreath
Decor of wreath - a house and a fir-trees
And now the hardest part - decorating the wreath. Thuja branches and snowberry
My poinsettia will be light, but shimmer in different colors
I want to draw a purple shadows for green brunches (then I made it more transparent, on such an intense)
Adding another objects of decor: the owl in the roof and stars
Then I make a shining of stars (with blur of duplicate layer and change blend mode to **Dodge**) and drop shadow from wreath to the door (on new layer too with **Multiply** blend mode and 70% opacity)
It remains to make the poinsettia flower beautiful and recognizable
And hang a wreath on a ribbon
I also decided to increase the backlight of the flower to bring it to the fore. I did it with some colorful brush strokes on new layer and set blend mode **Pin Light**
Yes, maybe someone with this decoration on the door celebrated Christmas
I hope you'll like my idea) Thanks a lot for your attention to my drawing tutorials! Have a nice and creative day to all! With Love...

My dear friend, as usual, you have created a very beautiful and creative painting full of good feelings. The color scheme of your painting is great, the choice of door color is great, everyone wants it to be their home. Your painting is completely 3D, with the shadows you draw... 👌
