I'm hosting the Watercolor Challenge on creativespark.art this month. All the photos are my personal photos. It is always a challenge for me to paint cosmos in any media. They are light and airy. It is difficult to make them look light and airy.
I worked on this sketch for a couple of hours and finally just put it to the side. After it dried completely it wasn't as bad as it had been in my mind. I will post it now, I wasn't going to.
This is on Arches, 140 lb., cold pressed paper, 9 x 12 inches. You can click on the image to see it a bit larger.

I took a few photos of the beginnings of flowers in the yard. We might get a few more bluebonnets this year and I'm hoping the back will be full of Indian Paintbrush and more. There is a start.
Bluebonnets
Not sure what these tiny flowers are.
Indian Paintbrush
The photos are a bit fuzzy as the breeze was a-blowin'.
