Watercolor Bouquet Portrait

Watercolor Bouquet Portrait

I saw this bouquet by Soil and Stem on Heather Nan's Instagram account and instantly fell in love.  I am obsessed with that bouquet!  It's so beautiful in every way.  I was so inspired by it that I asked their permission to paint it for a bouquet study.  They were so kind to say that I could!  Here is the finished product. 

First, I started by sketching it out.  Next I made a color study.

  

Next, I created the finished piece.  I'm in love with how it turned out, I may have to do more of these bouquet portraits!  I'll be on the lookout for bouquets that inspire me.  Email me if you'd like me to try yours next.  I need more practice!  (I'm not making any promises, but if I see one that makes my heart happy I may decide to paint it!)
