Welcome to Watercolor Wednesday. This week we are painting New Watercolor ARRTX: Bouquet of Anemones with Very Easy Gestural Technique
The gestural technique used here was splattering the watercolors on and spreading it into flower shapes. I had a few attempts but my white Peonies always ended up looking squished in the center.
I thought this was good challenge for learning control of both water and pigment ratios.
Thanks Linda for the challenge.

Your colors again are so vibrant and clean. Like how you created the white blooms also. It makes me want to try this again. Thanks for the inspiration.
