Peace Rose in Blue and White Vase

9x9 watercolor on Bristol paper that is today's work.  After looking at many of my peace rose photos one was selected that had been in full bloom to the point of it almost losing its lower petals.  The paper soaks up color and water quickly so many glazes had to be done to get values right.  The vase is a very small one I've used many times in various still life set ups.

Here it is! Two into one completed work, 22x15 inches that I will mount onto a support, mat, and frame.  Hopefully the viewer can make out what the still life is with lemons, grapes, zinnias and the blue and white pitchers and bowl.
