These pink oleander flourish down south and in the islands. This close up view of the flowers gives the painting a little more of an abstract feeling. It is painted on 140 lb Arches cold press watercolor paper. The flowers were masked and a large flat brush was used to paint the background. The leaves were painted and more glazes of color were added to soften and push the foliage into the background. I wanted the odd centers of the flowers to stand out.
