Yucca; White Isn't White


Painting a form of the Yucca right now, the leaves are a whitish-blue/green and the flower is white but isn't!  I am having to use a lot of light yellows and pinks, lavender and creamy undertones for this painting.  My usual is so bright that I am having to layer on white gouache to keep my painting from being of the florescent variety!  I am enjoying watching the colours dry and then laying on another layer of paint.  This is the beauty of watercolors, allowing the paint time to develop!
