In one of my previous posts I mentioned that I am hosting a new challenge at Susan Harrison-Tustain’s Artist Forum. This Challenge is/was a Watercolor Rose Study. I am happy now to tell you that my Rose painting is finished and I am more happy that so many artists joined the challenge.
Some are still working on their roses and I hope they find my teaching how I do a rose helpful.
This is my finished Rose painting.
Rose Ghislaine de Féligonde
medium: watercolor on 140 Lb hotpressed paper
size: 8×8 inch – 20×20 cm
