Take an artistic journey through the creation of a cherry blossom painting that spreads across three canvases. My daughter’s time spent living in Seoul, South Korea, inspired her to paint cherry blossom trees. This post will take you through the process.
Begin by creating a muted background with various colors of acrylic paints: lavender, blue, and green.
Next, paint the branches with green.

Add shading with brown.

Use a slender brush for shading fine branches.

Here’s an overhead photo of the three canvases in process.

The white blossoms make the painting come alive.

Add a touch of buttery yellow to create interest and variety.

Extend the cherry blossoms to the branch ends.


Display and enjoy your painting.
