4 inches by four inches A watercolor on clayboardthis flower was painted with yellow, quin gold, orange red, and green.
Each of the petals was painted with the lightest paint first then the darks were laid over the lights while wet. Last was the leaves and stem, they were painted with the light yellow green first then the darker green. I use a flat brush which makes it easys to do the leaves and petals.
