Pink Dogwood

12x9 watercolor on Canson 140 lb cp paper done last week or so as a class activity; ref provided by one of the students. A difficult backyard scene to recreate so we tried to simplify the elements to focus upon the pink dogwood blooms. I did do negative painting in the foreground with the larger leaf shapes.
