watercolor
size A4

It took veeeery long to paint this one (even the drawing itself). At first I was shocked when I saw the first layers of yellow and violet colors. It looked awful.    No primroses for me for a looong time...I made so many different layers of yellow and green and it just didn't want to end.  


The flowers in the painting are: peonies, primroses, violets and snowdrops
In other words...spring flowers!  


I made the painting for the group  , for their monthly theme "Spring".

Yes, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and do something theme related. This is my 2nd attempt (the first was the landscape painting - Blejski otok).

Have a flower as a gift

It's a very beautiful piece, Marcela. I can well understand it took a lot of (well spent) time.

Thank you  

For the birds I used a reference photo where they both were placed the same way as in my drawing. This was my starting point for the rest of it. Everything else I changed and made it my own  
That's why the drawing for this painting took ages  
And then the coloring...a never ending story
