The source for this painting is a bouquet that my brother and sister-in-law gave us for our 50th wedding anniversary. It was beautiful and I had to paint it. This was a quick painting - 1 1/2 hours and I tried to keep it loose. After loosely painting it, I defined it with a blackPigma Micron pen. The painting is 7" x 6 " and is painted on 140 lb. cold-pressed watercolor paper.

Hi Barb! I just discovered your blog and look forward to seeing your daily paintings. Love this bouquet!
I really like the effect of the pen work and the textures in the background. Well done!
Thanks, Julie! I will be honored to have you reading my blog!!!
Christiane...I was hesitant to get out the pen and then I thought - what the heck! So these are the results. I tried to stay loose, but for me that is very hard.
Thanks for commenting.
