Now we are going to paint the leafs.

Hide your flower selectionlayer and flowerpainting layer so only your leafs selection remains.

Click on your paintbrush tool and start painting the base of the leaf with this color #013D19. Then the top of the leaf with this color #62933D. Then we are going to smudge everything out like we did with the flower petals. Click on Retouch tool and apply these settings.

Your leaf should look something like this.

Paint all your leaves. Now we are going to add a few highlights just like on the flower petals. Use color #FFFFFF and paint with your paintbrush a few strokes on the leaves then smudge them out again.

We nearly there !!!

Add a drop shadow to the flower petal layer and your leaveslayer with shadowcolor #013D19.

Delete your flowerpetal selection. If you are not happy with the result move around the paint with the smudge tool till you are satisfied.

Merge your layers visible and crop your painting. Tube it for further use ! You can resize your painting at this time, just remember to sharpen after you resized it.

Your done !!

I hope you had alot of fun doing this tutorial. The posibilities are endless with this technique.
