Gone to Seed Daisies

7.5 x 10 watercolor on Canson 140 lb cold press paper; Daniel Smith paints, done this afternoon from my photo I took in the mountains of a dying, drying, daisy and its white withering friend beside.  Other shapes were done negatively while adding background colors of UB, carbazole violet, and quinacridone burnt orange.  My photo appeared unbalanced with only the two daisies so hopefully this works! I'll enter this in Art Colony blog's November challenge 'Gone to Seed'.

Woven Flowers of Passion

15x22 work is actually two identically painted scenes of pink roses in front of a house. The original was ho-hum boring so a few years late...
