"Petunia" Watercolor

11" by 15" 140lb cold press paper

The last of this petunia series, the poor petunias have been finished by the Texas heat. Hanging baskets quickly dry up in July and August down here. I would like to work a little more realistically. Time to search for some workshops either to go to get some video demonstrations.

"Hurricane Ike Bloom"

pencil drawing 11" by 14" 80lb. paper

Hurricane Ike sunflower blooms, right after they bloomed we had to replace the fence behind them so we had to take the sun flowers out. I am not pleased with the way the photo turned out, I am still learning what is the best way to take pictures of art work. Not sure what type of sun flowers these were they had very narrow petals on the blooms themselves.
