Flower with no name#1



This is about 3x5.5 inch watercolor on Arches 140lb rough paper. I took the photo of the flower while we were at Savannah garden expo. There were no vendor for me to ask about the flower name. I was unfamiliar with rough paper, especially when paint in such a small format. It did not allow me to have sharp control edge as I normally do. Anyway, I like the result.

This came out super, Ai! I don't know the name of this flower but it looks similar to a flower I took photos of in California once. I think it was called a trumpet flower. Beautiful color in this.

Love the bold colours you used - I think it is a trumpet flower, too.
