Bearded Iris in Watercolor

 

This lovely Bearded Iris flower is from a tutorial by Sarah Cray for Let's Make Art.

I transferred the outline of the flower onto my Canson 140 lb. cold press watercolor paper,  using my light pad. I painted this flower using Winsor Newton Cotman watercolor tubes. This lovely flower was a pleasure to paint, using my new Silver Black Velvet brushes!
