This painting I see to have started forever ago. About a quarter of the way through, a friend saw it and asked me to do a smaller version for her - the catch was - the smaller painting had to be completed first as she was leaving town. And so, I painted "Lavender Lilacs" for my friend, a similar version - then came back to this one. This painting is a full sheet watercolour with tons of details. I am for the most part, drawing as I go. Initially I scetched out the boundarys of the bloom and then started wortking towards the centre. A few times as I was lost in the painting - I thought I actually could smell the blossoms. I guess I have a vivid imagination.
