Watercolor on paper - quarter sheet. Color used is cobalt for this first step. Work on getting the structure with values.



This shows the next several steps. I added New Gamboge as well as a burnt sienna (or burnt orange) to the petals keeping in mind the values.
Then I wet the background and floated in indigo as well as the other 3 colors used in the petals.
