Gentle Mallow - an original floral artwork in watercolor and ink
<
An one of a kind floral art made in the summer 2011 in Russia. The beautiful mallows had a very gentle and rather indescribable (mauve, pink, peach, cream?) color. It was a great pleasure to draw and paint them. The painting got a touch of metallic golden ink and pastel.
The size of artwork is about 21 x 30 (8 x 12 inches), unframed
