Window and flowers by artsygang

Window and flowers

I drew this a while ago, but got to paint it only yesterday. I painted in watercolour. I have totally forgotten how to paint in watercolour. i am no longer familiar with the medium, due to lack of practice. But it is like it is. The greens are quite bright, but on the other hand, leaving the window and wall white, the plants seem to pop out. Here's the original for which the artsygang has approval for insipration https://365project.org/borof/365/2021-06-29
This morning I tried to 'fix' the painting, but almost ruined it. So I decided to post it as it is, before I fix it for good.
Credit for the idea of partial painting goes to Mr John Harrison https://youtu.be/LDPVAgVqHQg

It's beautiful moni!! Love that swag at the top, just add shiny baubles for Christmas?

The unfinished look looks finished to me.

Love it!! @monikozi

@monikozi what do you mean you have forgotten how to watercolor!? This looks remarkable! I like the combination of drawing and painting. It is an exquisite rend of the original!

I like the colors of the leaves and flowers. I like the ink "sketch" underlying the painting. It doesn't look unfinished by leaving the black and white. Why mess with a good thing.

@artsygang I'm happy if someone likes one of my photos and thinks about it and recreates it.
