Sunflower Garden WIP - finished

 15x11 watercolor completed today, brush only.  More leaves, foliage, and background trees were added then shadows were last, a mix of UB and permanent rose.  I've put pink hollyhocks and blackeyed susans into the composition.  Step 2 is seen below.

Tall sunflowers were added in background for height in this second view of the work in progress.
