I am doing an art project and i need it to look pretty realistic. Or is there any other idea, to do this project?
 
If you use Goggle Image and look at photos of lightning, you will see that it is white, often surrounded by either pink, blue or green "flash."

When I paint it I usually make the "flash" or fuzzy outline out of pink or blueish-green, sometimes purple, and then add the white "bolt" over the top of it. However, in this one, a watercolor, I masked the lights and the lightning, and painted them in later. . . .not quite as effective: http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii267/art4now/100_1572.jpg (This was a very experimental piece.)
