White Petunia Hanging Basket

16x20 watercolor on Arches 140 lb cold press paper with Daniel Smith paints.  This was painted partially wet in wet rapidly using floral photo ref of some vibrant white petunias in a basket by studio door.  It was taken before I had the shutters painted from purple to pale green.  The building also had red trim, hence the red background behind flowers.
