Pastel Pink Geraniums

6x4 pastels over watercolor, brush only, done today from life.  I used a variegated geranium for the two shades of pink, blocking all shapes in with #10 round brush, then covering with pale washes.  When dry, Caran D'Ache watersoluble wax pastels were applied to this floral on a Pastel Journal magazine card.  No water was put on the final pastel layer.
