Painting Spring Flowers in Watercolor

 

Spring is on it's way, which means lots of beautiful flowers to paint, time to

get the primary colours out. I love painting flowers, especially when you have a vase

of pretty blooms  next to you, they can be extremely  challenging!! But great fun

The problem I find is not getting enough tonal values and the colour Yellow is a prime example!

 

I do think it makes a good couple of hours watercolour practise. I applied washes with lots of water onto the Arches not paper. Clean water at all times, thought about colour complimentary and light next to dark.
