Pretty Purple Petunias

8x8 watercolor on Master's Touch 140 lb CP paper done week before last using my new petunias in a pot as a model. They smell so sweet. For years I did not grow them as they kept dying and as it turns out they were not watered enough. Painted wet on dry using lots of water and mixes of various blues and pinks by Daniel Smith.
