Back when I started painting watercolours the main subject matter was floral, which was a great way to learn about colour and technique without worrying too much about the exact form. Not to mention it was quite successful from a commercial standpoint as I ended up selling many of them including the second one I ever painted. Anyways, this subject was not as interesting as a became a University student, that is when I switched more to landscapes, and then abstract surrealism. Flowers have still shown up in a lot of paintings such as the last one I posted Rose and Wing. This one is in my parents collection.
