I have a yellow rose bush that has those tinges of apricot at the throat and edges of some petals. You know the one. I thought I'd try watercoloring the Fifth Avenue Floral rose to look like one of those. My attempts are poor compared to the real thing but the watercoloring with the aqua painter was fun. The color spreads easy. I only used 2 shades, a yellow and a pinky red. Two sizes of the Nestabilities Pinking Circles propped up the image on Delicate Dots paper and I used So Saffron ribbon to dress it up. Liquid Pearls dot the inside circle. The background is Certainly Celery cardstock. Have a great weekend. I'm headed outside to work awhile as it's in the low sixties here. Woo hoo!
