Sketch with gold

Start with loose gold-pen lines. Imperfect is perfect, and it adds instant charm.

Lift glowing highlights

Drop sunny yellow into wet shapes, then blot the tops with a tissue for an instant glow.

Go dark to make them shine

Paint a deep blue-green around every lemon and watch the yellow come alive. This is the secret.
