Garden Tools and Flowers

12x12 watercolor on 140 lb cold press Masters paper completed today of a garden still life complete with a butterfly.  The old yellow chair holds a watercan of tools while the blue metal can holds freshly cut annuals and flowering tree blooms.

Sunflower Bucket

18x12 watercolor on Canson 140 lb cold press paper.  This is a combination of more than one of my photos of fresh sunflowers and the use of old metal bucket.  The dark background and sunny splash of yellow on the bucket front was done on impulse to see if it worked.  I used a direct painting method wet on dry putting in darks first.
