I saw a sprig of leaves like this and then decided to create a piece adding another sprig...
size: 5.5"w x 4.5"h
Done on Canson Pen & Ink paper drew out the leaves then painted them wet on wet, dropping in my favorite blue and green (Holbien Peacock Blue & Permanent Green) watercolors. When dry added the linear lines in the base leaves.

I swoon, sigh... The beauty and grace, the colors, the painting technique -- so lovely.
