You all know my motto…..”when in doubt, paint flowers”!! I have been working on the 100 paintings challenge on Wet Canvas and in my case, that means pastels. While thinking about the next version, I got side tracked reading Elizabeth Mowry’s “The Pastelist’s Year”. She is head and shoulders my favorite pastel artist ….and not a bad writer either. So, I thought I’d do a small watercolor tonight. The image is approximately 4 X 6. Once again using Winsor Newton watercolors in my 7X9 sketch book. I definitely need to keep practicing using watercolor. It’s the medium I need to work looser. But, fuchsias are year around happy flowers. So, I hope you enjoy!

thats great! happy flowers indeed. It’s good to take a break from the repetitiveness of a large project like that to do fun stuff on the side, recharge your batteries and the like.
I’m so impressed that you can move back and forth so successfully from pastels to watercolor.
I love the gaity of these fushcias.
