Spicy and fragrant...

I'm not a huge fan of petunias but the deep purple colored ones go into my garden every year. I love their spicy, rich fragrance.

That is just beautiful. I have been trying to work on more flowers too. I figure if I can't have a garden (thanks to my dogs) then I can draw or paint one.

Thanks for the inspiration.

Very fresh and lively, so carefree-looking in its execution: as a watercolor should be!

You do spin magic out of water and pigment, Sharon.

Oh, I love petunias. they're kind of high maintenance, but they're cheerful and beautiful--you really captured them here! Excellent!
