Candlelight Roses - completed WIP

Finally finished with the romantic still life over the weekend! The lace tablecloth and curtains gave me fits as did the many reflections in the silver candlesticks.  This was an exercise in using mixed grays to enhance pure color of the fresh roses.  Size is 15x11 watercolor on Strathmore (reverse side to allow more happy accidents).
