cyclamen

(4.5x6.5)

Looking around the house for red and/or pink things to paint today. Though My Valentine would rather have a painting of a red boat than red flowers!

Laura, these cyclamen came out looking translucent and beautiful. I always think they're the prettiest flowers. What a wonderful Valentine image! You can do the red boat another day! LOL Happy Valentine's Day tomorrow!

These are absolutely lovely.
The combination of the pale and subtle hues gently deepening into the rich, deep pinks is perfect.
Gorgeous use of watercolours.
It's a 'happy' painting.

So soft and lovely, you captured the serene beauty of the cyclamen. I always enjoy your posts. They are a great example of the translucency of the watercolor medium.
