Waterlily: study

Watercolor & Graphite: About 2 1/2″ x 2 3/4″

This is a study for maybe a larger piece. I think I will try this again larger and with a couple of different layers of watercolor. And, maybe some opaque watercolor and colored pencil in addition to the graphite. I am finding it difficult to get the inside of the flower to stand out. Opaque will help with that. I like the idea of working  on studies that are super small and then working into a final piece that is larger. I need to discipline myself to become more and more familiar with the subject and keep my attention focused on improving the next go round. I am always wanting to move right on instead of living with the subject.
