Nice brushwork - looks casual and immediate - no fussing. I don't think it looks over-worked at all.

It looks OK to me

Cheers Thea and Frank, you're very kind. I think I caught myself aimlessly applying paint; I need to do more watercolour to be totally confident of what it can do as a medium. I found myself doing what I always tell my students to avoid...Fiddling without intent. That said I enjoyed the afternoon in the garden painting no matter what the outcome. All the best, Steve

17 cm x 17 cm watercolour. I've been trying out some Canson Vidalon 140Ib paper and it aint too shabby. Just started to lose this one and got drawn into overworking it in a rescue attempt, so I let it be. Is there any finer way to spend an hour than sitting in the sun painting?
