Watercolor Still Life #35 Dora Sislian Themelis

#35 Two Sunflowers 9c)2011 Dora Sislian Themelis
14x20 Watercolor on Lanaquarelle paper
Another still life using my own photographs of the sunflowers from the vegetable share makes this watercolor painting #35 in the challenge. I finished this work in three twenty minute intervals, allowing me to step away and keep details to a minimum.

    Well placed touches of red and green. Love the decisive brushstrokes, and the strong contrast.

    I love the SunFlowers. But this one blew my mind away. So beautiful and so precise!
    Thank you,

    ...it's beautiful, Dora! The petals seem to glow with the sun. I like to step away from my watercolors too. It seems to save me from muddiness a lot.
