You don't often paint flowers but this was worth waiting for , it's beautiful.

Posted by Val Kenyon on Thu 13 Jul 14:13:12

Alan, Thalia, Stephen, Val……thank you very much. No I don’t generally paint flowers but sometimes you just can’t resist!

Posted by Fiona Phipps on Thu 13 Jul 14:35:26

Eye catching and so in your face it’s almost threatening. If an iris can be. Great work!

A great mixed media Iris Fiona. I think the addition of the ink has really added something to it.

A4 watercolour, Indian ink and a spot or two of pastel. A follow on from Paul’s lovely Iris for Sylvia, as I have some flowering at the moment. I can’t tell you what they are Sylvia I'm afraid, as they are inherited. I thought I would give the goose feathers I picked up around the Lochan a try……work really well with the ink.
