A flower from my Valentine’s bouquet. There were burgundy and pale yellow carnations in the bouquet and I was in love with the yellow ones.
Though I had a terrible time trying to capture that pale yellow in my painting. It took me most of the afternoon and this was actually the third painting that I did. In the first two I kept killing the lovely lemon yellow colour with the white paint. In this one I used no white, just a lot of water to make it light and still keep the brightness of the yellow.
That is really good job. I think that painting glass things may be very hard.
I love watercolours!
Thanks!
You’re very welcome. ;’)
i love the delicacy of this one Dayna! neat to see the actual flower beside the painting.
Thank you Shawna :)
Yellow can be a somewhat difficult color I think, but you’ve managed it here. I agree, it looks soft and delicate. Very nice Dayna!
Thanks Marie :)
