Contessa Double Lavender

 Work in Progress


In early summer, I visited a local garden center for the first time.
There I found a Contessa Double Lavender trailing pelargonium.
I already had the Double Pink.
When the flowers start to open, they look like tiny roses.
This gives the pelargonium an old-fashioned and elegant look.
When the brushwork is finished and uploaded in the Portfolio, I will post it on the Blog.

P.S: I've done a bit of research and it turns out the label was wrong. My pelargonium is a Colorcade Lilac.

Firepot is now finish.
The brushwork was done in Corel Painter.
The fireblend shade is unchanged.

Firepot

I still have lots to do in the garden.
This leaves me with less time for brushwork.

Firepot was a surprise find this year.
This waterlily dahlia got mixed with a decorative variety.
At the moment, I am working on the negative space.
I do this part in Photoshop.

When the underpainting is ready, I switch to Corel Painter.
