In between painting the mule this weekend and running around doing other things (like polishing firetrucks for a parade that got cancelled anyway) my daughter and I got outside to paint. You wanna have fun and challenge yourself as an artist? Let your 5 year old tell you what to paint and pick the medium!
I haven't used watercolors since last summer but decided to give it a go. The rose buds on the right were last night and the open bloom on the left met us this morning when we went out.
I think my favorite little study is the yellow and brown iris petal.
