Coloring Tips for Botanicals
Wild milkweed usually features muted green leaves with faint red or white veins running through the center. The seed pods range from light pale green to dry brown as they mature in late summer. Colored pencils work best for adding soft shading to the rounded pods and slender leaves.
- Use light green and soft gray for young, growing pods
- Add hints of pink or cream to the central leaf veins
- Try deep olive green for the main stem and broad foliage
- Use tan or brown for mature, split seed pods
