Painted to celebrate those plants that are still flowering profusely despite the lengthening nights. 12" by 9" watercolour.

It looks beautiful, your colours always blend so well. In a garden a few doors down, there is the most magnificent pink flower. I don't know what sort of flower it is but I sure would like to try and paint it. 👍

Lovely! If a little constructive (?)criticism is allowed, the white markings on the leaves either side of the poppy are a bit dominant and draw your eye away from the focal point. Love the textures you achieve with the paint , I would happily give wallspace to one of your pictures! :) xx

I am still clambering up the steep learning curve, Leo. I am looking for a way to get lines of masking fluid as fine as I can. This I tried with a sharpened twig. Obviously not the answer. Nor has a dip pen proven the way. I tried a ruling pen, but the lines of fluid were too fine to remove. What a conundrum!

Lovely. Reminds me of an illustration in a Victorian book on flowers. 🌸

Absolutely beautiful. I would certainly have one of your paintings on my wall as I would Bobbybob's paintings too.

My strawberry plans have flowered again, wonder if I'll get a few more or if the birds will get them?
