I was in trouble with this one. I did one of the flowers as a fully open flower, and it looked like crap, I decided to do the ones I like most, the early stages when it is starting to open.
Finally it caught up with me, haven't had a sick day for ages, and one day into my 4 week vacation, I got a cold. I have painted some today, but am not loving it as much as usual. Thought I post the first painting, where I paint big, big brushes too, keeping it fresh, not doodling with details etc. Well, I try to work on my week side. I have a blast.
