Superb. The light and shade are brilliantly portrayed.

I'd consider this to be a perfect watercolour and agree with Angi and Avril. Cosmos daises, one of my favourite flowers! I wonder what size this lovely painting is?

Louise, It's approx 48x36cm. Thanks for the nice comment!

This is just perfect, Ann. Beautifully painted flowers, leaves and sunlight (shadows) on the flowers. Marvellous!

A watercolour loosely portraying the cosmos, scabious and poppy seed heads in my garden. The poppy foliage governed the choice of blues and greens in this.
