Verbena floral

22x15 watercolor of a dark red verbena with a little exaggeration on my part in this macro view.  I added a few roses and distant verbena blossoms within the picture plane for variety.  I used Italia Acquerello 140 lb cold press paper and Daniel Smith paints with Coastal Fog by American Journey.

Love these reds, Kay...I wish this was growing in my garden this year.
