I chose this photo with the light colors of the florals on the black background for inspiration. I used the colors from this week's CC to watercolor the blossom with SU reinkers and an aqua brush.

Gasp! Jaw Drop! I am so glad I was sitting down when I opened up this stunning beauty Sallie - wowsers! Your water coloring of this stunning bloom is impressive enough, then you add this bold background into the mix, and I am at a loss for words. I love the two-toned sentiment you painted here too. This is a true Sallie Picasso! Hugs! ~Karen.

Oh, Sallie! I agree with everyone above and would LOVE to spend an afternoon just watching you (along with some friends). What fun and fascination. Thanks for sharing this beauty, and what a perfect inspiration choice. I look at each one and examine the strokes to see the shading and light that you allow to shine through. Thank you so much! Hugs, sweet friend! xoxo
