White Roses

22x15 watercolor of some of my climbing roses planted in the front of the house.  This is painted wet in wet on 140 lb Saunders cold press paper. I snapped several photos when they were blooming at their peak then painted them. Not happy with the mid section it was reworked and more negative leaves, stems, and thorns added. My favorite part is the rosebud upper right. It was painted wet in wet and colors allowed to mix and mingle.  Daniel Smith paints used.
