[Louisa Rautenbach]

Sharon and Nina, thanks you for you lovely comments, much appreciated.

  Both well done Louisa, your second flower is great! I had a lot of fun doing this one...quite a few whoopsies  but a fantastic lesson and you've really grasped the techniques. Good on you!

  Here is my hibiscus flower.  I like the wat the colors blended on the petals.  Kathy

Lovely hibiscus, Kathy.  yes, great job on the petal blending.

The center around the three bottom petals seems to blend all into itself.  Maybe a slight change in each tonal value will make the three petals distinct as they reach the center.

Nice background, too.

Mea;  I lightened the edges of the bottom three petals. There is very little difference in the one Dennis did also. The camera does not show this very well. Kathy

Beautiful hibiscus, Kathy!  That's the state flower of Hawaii.

Like the leaves and background, too.

The colors look so beautiful together - vibrant.

This painting is alive with excitement.
