This was also done for the WDE. I severely cropped the reference photo so I could focus on one flower. This is about 5.5 x 8 done on a blank watercolor greeting card.
I have always participated in the visual arts including watercolors, drawing and sketching, pen and ink, and photography. Since retiring from teaching I have devoted much of my time to watercolors, sometimes combining them with pen and ink or collage.
Watercolor is the perfect medium to capture the beauty that surrounds us. I love to travel, and sketch and paint wherever I go. Painting, especially on location, captures the spirit and life of the subject. I hope to continue doing that for a long time to come.

Lin - There were a lot in the reference and I knew I couldn't do them all. lol Thanks!
Sherry - I like saving some of my small works on cards. That way someone can get one in the mail. Thank you.
