Oops, my poinsettia isn't translucent...my bad. I wanted to paint a white poinsettia this week and it has some gray color, too. One of the bracts (modified leaves) is broken off. It had a mishap. lol You know that can happen, right?
Hope you will join us this week and make a pretty Christmas card.

I think painting white things is the hardest thing ever so, I am totally impressed that you did your bloom in white Brenda, doing the background with colors really lets it POP

Wonderful, soft colors, Brenda. You put yourself a task.....IMO, watercoloring white objects is not the easiest. You created a lovely card that anyone would be thrilled to receive.

Nicely accomplished, dear Brenda! I love how you made this your own, and yes, I understand about broken leaves! My home is not a safe place for live greens, lol That’s why most greenery in my home is fake, or looked after by DH!
