Peach Iris Watercolor

Hi,I picked this peach iris and blue one on my walk today and had to paint one. So I've started here. I'm painting on the back porch. The air is so sweet with orange blossom(mock orange bush)and honeysuckle which grows wild everywhere here and also the American Holly is blooming.It's a tiny white flower where the berries are and so sweet..anyway I'm continuing to paint..talk to you soon.Diana

  7. I have enjoyed creating art and was contemplating trying watercolor for the first time. I wanted to make a gift for my mother, an iris painting, so your painting really inspires me. I have drawn with pencils and tried a bit of oil and acrylic painting, but pastels were my favorite. My mom's parents were iris growers and show judges, so those flowers mean a lot to her. When searching for images, yours came up! Hope all is well with you.
