Going through a beautiful little book about various art styles and saw a painting by a botanical artist, Marie Burke (marieburke-art.com) which inspired me to try it.
(You can see her gorgeous painting in the left/bottom side of the book cover.)
I have never had the patience to be a botanical painter - so precise and small increments of change don’t make me happy - but I am not unhappy about the finished painting (quarter sheet watercolor).
I can see now that I look at it here that I did not get the flowing look of the one in the book, nor did I get the rounded shape in the top edges.
