Quince song is another of my water colour paintings
i just love the flowers on a quince this one grows in my garden it has lethal thorns though (smile) when i brought the plant it was so small i didnt think it would survive .... i now have to prune it every year to keep it  manageable or it would take over im sure.each and every year i get a mass of beautifull flowers and the colours are just stunning a great little plant  it does bare fruit but i have never used them in jams or jelly. i really hope you are enjoying  your time spent  looking at my blog

a little bit of pink



a painting i did last year i realy enjoyed painting this one i painted it from a photograph this hydrangea also grows in my garden
i wanted to paint it while it was in full bloom ,each petal has at least 7 layers thin layers of paint added if not more to get the depth i wanted the back ground was first painted in yellow hard to believe but true i slowly added more layers of different colours gradually getting it darker showing the wood grain
