Again, like the kitties, subject is not my "cup-of-tea" but the execution is superior. Like the pastel, this watercolor demonstrates your mastery of this the most difficult of mediums for me anyway. Great washes and subtly rendered details. Professional quality.

Lovely watercolor of the roses. Love the color choices you made. They all compliment each other very well. Nice soft feeling to the composition. Blending of colors is very well done. Good presentation.

Painting with water colour is such a wonderful way to capture the softness of flowers. But they dry to fast for me and I use oils for the realistic things I do, but I do appreciate those of you can use them. And use them expertly, you do.
I get a soothing floating feeling from this painting. The design and composition is magnificent and the colours perfect.

What a delightful Mother's Day gift. I got some also.

Your watercolor blends very well. That full bloom and bud, in their 3-4 shades of white/rose, just seems to be talking to the viewer.
I gather you wanted to make it a flower garden in your painting, and, just maybe, the purple could be larkspur, but seems out of sync with the rest of the picture.

    Thank you for your comments. It was just an impression of other non-specific flowers I wanted in the background to add colour.

Ok, I think I have found a new favorite. I love all your paintings but I love this one. I love roses and pink is my favorite color so I was drawn to this immediately. Awesome job Suzanne.

Excellent and beautiful watercolor painting. The way you did the washes in this is beautiful. The detail in the roses and the way you painted them is wonderful. The way you saved the white areas and did the background are excellent. A beautiful painting.
