Pale Pink Poppy

12x9 watercolor, gouache, and white gel pen on Canson 140 lb cold press watercolor paper finished today. This began as torn paper adhered to wc paper as a textural collage; paper used was toilet seat covers.  It was fun to watch the mystery unfold as paint was applied to both layers.  The delicate fragility of the poppy's petals lent its quality well to the use of this method.
