Pink Lilies


Pink Lilies
This 18 X 24" watercolour on 140 lb Arches paper began as a quick study (about one hour) at the Tuesday Paint & Pint group. Following up in studio with photo references taken that night, I finished it incorporating my "window" layered technique. The subject lent itself well to this unusual uplift provided by isolating a border - an effect that sometimes just makes a watercolour floral. Hope you like it.
