Sunflowers on Purple

sunflowers on purple loose floral watercolor painting This painting was done from life as a demo for my watercolor class. I loved the contrast of light, thick sunflower stems against the purple draping - hence the unusual cropping of the composition to show only the stems and the bottom few of the flowers. I'll be posting my students' versions of the same setup soon! :)
