Two Dead Flowers - Watercolour


This piece is also an A6 watercolour, I really enjoyed painting the dead flowers as they were a lot more textured and varied than the live flowers. I found that they really dried out and the petals shrivelled up into interesting and delicate looking shapes. They also became very distorted, however still look like flowers.
I plan to make the green and white/grey flowers a real feature in a lot, if not all of my paintings, and have them become a kind of motif, and to create a sense of continuity through out all of my paintings. So that they can be displayed well as a series, but they should still work on their own too.
