Cherry Blossom: a national pastime from Japan
The cherry blossom tree is considered an important plant for Japanese culture. Every spring, for a limited period, Japanese people gather in parks at the beginning of April to view the Sakura (=cherry blossom) trees in full bloom. This event called Hanami (= flower viewing) also brings hundreds of thousands of foreigners every year to Japan to witness the beauty of these flowers themselves.
Sakura can be found in almost every area in Japan, and they have become a symbol of spring for their people. Around this time, the perfume of these flowers can be felt all around, and it brings a feeling of warmth and peacefulness.
The view of a blooming cherry flower tree is associated with youth and beauty, and the soft pink tones embellish any garden they are found in.
How to paint a cherry blossom?
Are you interested in becoming an artist or simply learning to paint a realistic cherry blossom tree?
Like with every painting, it is best to start by laying down the base colors on the canvas, using acrylic without much pigment. Start by painting the tree crown with dark, unsaturated pink. On top of that, you can start painting the tree branches, starting with the biggest ones and adding smaller ones as you paint.
Only then can you start adding colors such as white and different tones of pink and paint smaller clusters of leaves over the branches. For finishing touches and slightly more realism, add smaller leaves using a different shade of pink so they stand out.
Reproduce the pink trees on your painting by number canvas
If you want to bring the magic of the fragile cherry flower into your own home, then a DIY cherry trees painting kit might be a good choice for you. You only need a paint pot, oil or acrylic, a brush, and water. Use the paint set’s canvas to color each numbered area with the right color, according to the pattern. There is no mixing of colors involved, so you can easily finish the painting using the set’s given colors.
You don’t have to be an artist to use floral kits, as the template is easy to understand. Once you finish your painting, frame the canvas and place it in your house or give it away as a thoughtful, unique gift. The flourishing cherry blossom trees will bring a touch of elegance to any room they are placed in.
