Soft Summer Pinks & Reds

Soft Summer Pinks & Reds

Watercolor

The inspiration for this painting was a fresh bouquet of coneflowers, daisies and dusty miller buds that I picked from our garden. The colors and shapes are fresh and attractive, and I find myself coming back to paint my favorite subject matter. The possibilities are endless!

I begin with a loose pencil drawing to describe the shapes and organize the composition, focusing on the design. Next I choose the colors from fresh paints. My favorites are the quinacridones — they seem to vibrate with brilliance, something I try to achieve in my watercolor paintings. It is a joy to paint flowers!
