up two washes.
Alizarin Crimson/French Ultramarine to produce a purple. Alizarin Crimson with just a touch of Ultramarine. Try each mix on a piece of scrap paper, further modify if necessary. Choose the colors to suit your taste.

Light
wash applied to rear petals and edges softened with a damp brush.
|
 |
Front petals brushed with clear water and purple mix applied wet into wet. |
 |
Process
repeated one petal at a time. Allowing each one to dry before starting
the next.
Water being applied to middle petal. |

Purple
mix applied while paper wet - see how the paint spreads while wet paint
is added and moved around with the brush?
Once the paper starts to dry, you must stop or "runbacks" will occur. |
