Sparrows and Rosebuds

11x14 mixed media on Artists Loft mixed media paper done last weekend, an imaginary trio of sparrows watching over the rose garden. I used a stencil with acrylics over dry paper then watercolor used elsewhere. COPYRIGHT 2023 Kay Smith

Impressions of Roses

14x11 watercolor on Kilimanjaro 140 lb cold press paper done today after a quick pencil contour drawing.  I put in darks first as I usually do beginning with quinacridone magenta in the top rose, then permanent rose, wetting areas here and there.  Some dry edges were left and some lost edges remain in this impressionist painting bouquet.
