French Windows

5.5 x 8 watercolor and Pigma Micron 01 pen painted today.  This is a close crop of a larger building featured on WetCanvas Weekend Drawing Event, ref courtesy of Kat, who lives in France.  The original photo did not have a red geranium in a clay pot in its upper story window; that was added by me for a touch of hot red.

Beautiful, Kay. I didn't really see the potential in this ref photo, but now I do. Happy Mother's Day (if that applies.)
