Jilted

I love painting the Gerbera daisy. I wish they came in variety packs with regard to color. The last a long time too. The title "Jilted" came to mind because the smaller more decayed flower reminded me of a jilted lover. The surface is an 8 by 8 inch piece of Wallis paper. I started out with a watercolor under painting and used a variety of pastels including Sennelier's iridescent colors. I added some purple highlights to the flowers to give it a bit of a bounce.
