Wildflowers

This one was fun. I especially enjoyed scribbling in that evergreen. I don't know what those pink flowers are, probably some kind of thistle, as best I could tell from my old photo. I am looking forward to spending some time sketching outdoors this summer. These watercolor pencils are a lot of fun to play with and I am so glad I am taking the time to learn how to use them. This is another 4 x 4 inch study on Arches hp.

very nice texture to the trees :D you are doing really great with these pencils :) the added splash of pink nicely breaks up the greens and blues

Hi Ann!
I like the composition of your painting, the depth in the landscape and the softness and combination of colors. Most everything :)
Bye!

Mmh, all this green, it looks wonderfully fresh! Love the one below, too, "grassy bald", it has wonderful colors, and your 23 and 24 may posts, they're gorgeous, with a fabulous work on the shadows! Very impressed with the regularity and quality of your every day in may : )!

I've got to try some hot press paper as it isn't so toothy and grabby. This is such a happy looking sketch, I love it.
