Waterlily Dahlia

Watercolor and Inktense Pencil.  I washed the whole flower & background with watercolor, then added the Inktense Pencils to the middle petals to define the center more.
I really enjoy working with Inktense Pencils.  I have more control over the look of the finished painting, when using them.   I could have taken this flower painting further, but decided I liked the look of the pale-crimson outer petals against the more detailed centre.
