BEFORE version, titled
Petunia Patch 2012, watercolor on 140 lb cold press paper, of a large pink petunia with other flowers, a floral that just did not quite work for me and earned its reputation as an 'old dog' painting. I'd selected it, then put a line drawing of a pig over it, traced the outline, then developed a new composition as seen in the top image. The only part I really liked was the upper left red petunias and leaves.
