Basket Bouquet

15x22 watercolor, work in progress finished with the addition of muted background garden shapes and colors of various foliage/flowers.  Now the white basket is framed by middle values and shows up more distinctly than against white paper.
I want to step over the bouquet, pick it up, and take it into the house to display the fresh blooms in a nice vase.
