Having never painted a really good rose I'd have to say that statement still stands. Also painting on hot pressed watercolor paper proved to be quite the challenge. The paint tended to sit on top of the surface and lift when I tried to glaze over it. I finally resorted to breaking all the so-called rules of watercolor to rescue this rose to the point of considering posting it here. I used opaques! Shame on me. LOL

Billie this is so lovely and delicate!
It looks pretty translucent to me Billie. I envy anyone who can draw a flower well, I simply butcher them :)
Mary and Jeanette, thanks you! you should've seen the first rose i drew. LOL! is was horrible. i had better luck drawing this in a larger format for some reason.
Yummy Billie! almost good enough to eat. You are really growning with your wc lately. Love to see your perseverence.
