Ritzy Ranunculus

9x6 watercolor on 140 lb cold press Italia soft paper that I painted this weekend.  Using one of my pink ranunculus photos, I decided to jazz it up a bit by adding water, letting paint run upside down, then repeating the process for a loose splashy look.  Splatters were done when dry.
