Bougainvillea Vines

5x13 fuchsia pink and pale orange-pink alcohol ink bougainvillea leaves, inspired today by one I bought at Johansen's nursery.  All the leaves including the colored tips are soft and thin and the inks did a nice job as far as texture goes.  I used Senorita Magenta, Flamingo, and Lettuce colors and a wooden chopstick to lay in the green vines and leaves.  This was done on white freezer paper on the shiny side.
