'Peace' Tea Rose Botanical Watercolor

I've just started trying my hand at botanicals and am having a great time. So often I would paint watercolors and be very pleased with the flower, then somehow in putting a background in, would ruin the whole look. I think botanicals work best for me. Thanks for looking.

Though a postscript, the top rose appears a little more washed out than it does in real life...my scanner never seems to do pinks justice.

That's just lovely, I love botanicals. I have
a collection of scans of antique botanicals.

Very pretty

Very nice! I admire your ability to do watercolor. It is very hard for me. I took watercolor as a college class many years ago. We always put in the background first.

This rose is very nice.
