It's Watercolor Wednesday! Kia is giving us blending practice this week. I chose this large Picket Fence Studios poinsettia because it's my largest stamp, good for blending practice.
I set aside several days to work on this. In the end, I had to make myself stop before I messed it up. It's not perfect, it's practice! I enjoyed myself so much, I can't wait for my next Watercolor practice day!

Angela, Picket Fences is very blessed to have you on their DT, for you really took this stamp and made some very special art. I was first drawn to the coloring of your poinsettia itself, and then to your shadows. You kept this image front and center, and it works SO well!!! Stunningly beautiful!!!

So gorgeous, Angie. Such awesome watercoloring on this beautiful stamp...which I want/need/have to have. LOL Framing this was such a great idea.

So pretty, Angie. I love your shading around the flower and your lovely color choice. I think I will try a poinsettia next. Great idea. Hugz

I love the way you achieved all the highlights and lowlights in this pretty poinsettia. Even the shadowing around your flower is intriguing with that smoky gray mixed with the more honey beige tones.
