Climbing White Roses

22x15 watercolor on 140 lb cold press Saunders Waterford. These climbing white roses were by our front steps and I snapped several photos when they were blooming at their peak then painted them. Not happy with the mid section it was reworked and more negative leaves, stems, and thorns added. My favorite part is the rosebud upper right. It was painted wet in wet and colors allowed to mix and mingle.  Daniel Smith paints used.
