Rain's Thursday Art Date asked us to 'try a different medium' this week. This (8 1/2" x 11') piece is done entirely in watercolour crayon. The stubby crayons look like pastels. After colouring in the page, I dipped a paintbrush sparingly into a small amount of water and this is the final result. The tulip is based on a photo I took from above it, peering into the stamen and pistils at the centre. There were 6 perfectly formed petals, the magic of nature really.
