Hydrangea

This is very good Christine. I love the way you have painted the leaves and the petals are so well observed.

another beautiful flower, translucent and lovely, you really capture their realism :-) i agree with you that Arches watercolour papers are beautiful and i use them just for best work, i just never know when best works will happen, so they end up in the draw :-p

I agree, I don't think you can improve on perfection Christine.

You are all very kind. I will leave it, although I have to admit to being inspired by Carole's hydrangeas and falling way short.

This is the first time I have used Arches HP paper and I think it's wonderful to work with. You can get really good detail, but also works well with wet in wet washes. I "think" this one is finished, but I have been tweaking it for the last few days now and think I might be in danger of overworking it! I don't know.
