8"x 10", watercolor on 140" paper

Found some 5" x7" paper already cut and taped down, so I attempted this very frilly camellia that I photographed today. The painting just comes nowhere close to the intensity of the deep watermelon pink-red!
It's not quite finished yet - but it's the only thing I worked on today, so it is today's entry. It still has a way to go, but not tonight. I like it better now than I did when I first started, but still doesn't feel as fresh as I wish it did. Maybe I will experiment with it again after I finish this version!
I decided on a challenge - I've been wanting to paint this one for a long time, but it took a good while, and I'm not really happy with it. I think I'll leave it for a bit and see if something occurs to me...
This old home is not near the shore, but was apparently called the "Boat House" for the original owners. It was revealed recently when the surrounding land was clear cut. It was certainly fascinating, but was falling in on itself and was then burned to the ground.
