Inspire Me Thursday ~ Paints



Inspire Me Thursday's challenge this week was "Paints." This is part of a flower series I'm working on. I know several people who garden, quite successfully (I'm not one of them: I'm afraid I've a black thumb), and I'm photographing and painting their beautiful flowers.

Watercolors.

Very beautiful. The pansies look so lifelike. You do have a green thumb, from the paints! Nicely done.

The pansy always makes me think of a beautiful doll face for some reason. I love the colors and detail in this. It is beautiful.

well, for not being a gardener, you definitely have the eye to capture the beauty they hold...btw...they also make excellent pressed flowers for collages.
