Sunday Watercolor: Hibiscus

It is Sunday and I'm here to share a new watercolor.



I've had a lot of questions lately on what colors I use and if I work from photographs. I shared my palette of favorite colors in this post: HERE - And yes, I work from photos but - as you can see - often make changes to them - this was a picture I took on a vacation to southern Italy  a few years ago and that has been in my inspiration folder since then.

I use Winsor Newtons Professional watercolors and Daniel Smith's extra fine watercolors. The paper I use is 140lb Arches rough or fine.


I also share my watercolors and cards here:  My Instagram
