The New York State Flower. I had to paint 20 of these roses for an instructional class I taught at the Escondio Arts Expo, each one signifying each step, so that the students could see how it is completed. I have a video of the painting being created on my youtube channel. I tried to suggest the tiniest of little veins that one would see on the rose which was a tedious thing to do especially in watercolor. This painting has many different glazes with much control of the water with my brush using the lifting out technique.
