Here are two more photos of my painting in progress. I’ve added more of the leaves and background. I’ve been working on this a little bit each day, trying not to rush myself. I’ve never attempted a watercolor this ambitious before, so I’m trying not to worry so much when things don’t come out perfectly. I’ve also decided that I am going to just stick with watercolor and not turn it into anything mixed media.

For some reason, the bottom photo turned out grainy. I should have checked if it came out okay before I continued painting! Tomorrow I’ll post the finished piece.
