Perfect Primrose

14x11 watercolor on Kilimanjaro 140 lb cold press paper completed today.  Evening primroses grow wild here in west Texas and are usually pale yellow to bright yellow with some pink ones.  This close up view shows its interesting center and display of long, slender yellow stamens.

Wildflowers - Yellow Primrose

15x22 watercolor of yellow evening primrose, a common roadside flowering weed or wildflower.  I photographed these close up growing in the vacant lot next door then painted them.  This painting was my first one accepted into the Western Federation of Watercolor Societies a few years ago in Surprise, Arizona.
