Daisy Petals

8.5x5.5 watercolor and ink line on Masters sketchbook paper done today.  Using one of my white daisies photos, several were sketched in with Micron 01 pen.  These perennials are always such a joy to see come up with the warmth of a pre-Spring sun, through the still cool earth.  Splattering of yellow orange (gamboge) was done when dry.
