So beautiful Annie, you have caught the gorgeous colours so well! Both your sweet pea paintings are delightful. If I sniff hard I can smell them!!

Really beautiful and very like the self-sown ones in my garden that I'm enjoying right now. But I couldn't paint them like you did.

Thank you Maureen. Sandra, I'm sure you could. Drawing in watercolour pencil (it dissolves into your paint). Wet one petal at a time just with water, then introduce the colour, let it run in and and allow to dry before doing the petal next to it. Easy, a bit like a colouring book! I see you use a lot of acrylic, see if it works in that ?

I wish you could paint smell because the smell of these flowers was amazing. I was very proud of growing these, I had fabulous vases of flowers all Summer. Watercolour on rough paper.
