Your loose, expressive sketching gives this bouquet such natural movement, and the mix of watercolor and gouache creates beautiful depth in the petals. The splatters add just the right touch of energy, and the gingham base frames the arrangement in a warm, inviting way.

Such a lovely painting, Linda. Love the greenery, framing, and bow (works for the ribbon theme in this week's WT challenge). Lovely. Hugz
