Watercolor Wednesday: Pansy Dance

Pansy Dance/ watercolor/ 6" x 6"/$75

In  this watercolor, the goal was to paint the "velvet"  of the petals and the "freedom" of these spring flowers.

Surprising, the darks in the pansy faces needed a lot of alizarin crimson and burnt sienna to balance the purple and black.
