Flowers

I've been trying to figure out what exactly it is that I do when I splash color across the paper and then make a decent painting out of it. Bad paintings that way are super easy but good ones are more illusive. Today I decided that flowers might make a good subject for experimentation and I did these three. They're each a quarter sheet (11x15 or so). Three at a time makes sense because I have to let the underpainting dry before I can go on and I'm usually not patient enough for one. You see them in the order I painted them.
