African Violet

I decided to try some watercolor loosely.   I'm usually a detail person. I put down the greens and let dry. Then added some loose ink lines to hint at the leaves. Then added a little watercolor pencil and waterbrush for some shadow. Here is "African Violet". I made a little sketchbook without a cover from some full sheets of Arches paper. It is about 5.5 x 7.5 inches and held together by metal rings.

Day 21

Another geranium for Day 21. I kept the blooms that I cut the other day in a cup of water. The little buds on the stem are opening up.
