She should be pleased! Nicely done.

Peter, Mia, Stephen and Tessa thank you for your kind comments. I did send her photo of it but I did not mention the title , I do know she really does like irises but I suspect few people don’t .

Thank you Sylvia.

One of my favourites too, I've just finished a CP version of one and a watercolour version. This is lovely Paul.

Posted by Val Kenyon on Tue 11 Jul 11:59:22

Thank you Val I will look out for yours. It’s surprising how many people actually have this flower as a favourite, a good old fashioned flower I know but as good as a lot of the more upmarket plants.

Gorgeous! In my opinion you can’t beat an iris for pure, natural beauty!

Posted by Spencer Lambeth-Angell on Tue 11 Jul 15:07:07

Really beautiful iris Paul.

A4 watercolour of a single Iris the last one growing in my garden . I do enjoy painting flower when I can be motivated to do so , very complex things when you look close . I know it’s Sylvia’s favourite flower , she is quite expert at sketching and painting them , they just happen to be my favourite as well .

I have sketched most of my life on and off I became interested in watercolour following a spinal injury whilst in hospital but did not follow it up. My eldest daughter bought me a beautiful wooden box set of half pans about twenty five years ago I dabbled on and off until retirement twelve years…
