Your first flower bouquet - composition, brush strokes and layering color to get depth.

Everyone can paint this easy and quick watercolor floral featuring Black Eyed Susans. I used just a couple of yellows, plus orange, black and a touch of green to create a striking design ideal for a card, or a small gift for anyone who loves flowers.

About my brushes
I buy my favorite brushes from Drawell. They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 11-2, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. http://www.drawell.co.jp/english/prod...
