Watercolour over initial pen sketch. W&N 140lb w/c paper, approx 9x12" and about 2 hours. (DR paints + one paint stick by Daniel Smith)
Still contemplating darkening some more - and keep wanting to add red, so I may yet!



Thank you for looking

Re: WDE June 17: Come into my garden .... please!
Really nice work on this, Maureen. It s lovely as is, but could definitely handle more darks if you wanted to add them.

All that green is just begging for a dash of red somewhere, isn't it? I'm torn on this one though...

I printed this one, but I am a little scared of it.
