Plucked off a drooping flower then decided to use for a little practice, trying to paint the flower without drawing and letting the running pigment suggest the petals.
So delicate and lovely - and just how watercolor is supposed to look when it's done right :) I just got 2 Shirley Trevena books and love looking at her textures (although she makes some of them using other media).
