Prairie Coneflowers ~ Mexican Redhats

8x8 watercolor on Masters 140 lb cold press paper completed today from my Mexican redhat wildflower photos.  This beauty can be seen along roadsides and vacant lots and is also known as the common prairie coneflower with either red, dark red, or yellow 'skirts'.

Watercolor is good for these Mexican Hats. Look light and airy. Good Job.
I love the donkey in your next sketch. Want to hug him. :-)
