Small carnations, a symbol of distinction and affection, dominate the center of this small watercolor.
The flowers are rendered with rich texture, showcasing their distinctive ruffled petals in an intense palette of deep pink, ruby red, and accents of white. The emerald green stem and leaves are defined with quick brushstrokes, while the background is kept clean or slightly blurred, allowing the flower to pop.
The work uses the density of the pigment to create the tactile sensation of the carnation's ripples, making the flower solid and vibrant.
The small size makes the work extremely versatile and a small focal point with a great chromatic impact.
Your space will gain character, romance, and a touch of bold color, thanks to the expressive power of this classic flower.
This work was created entirely by hand, celebrating watercolor's ability to excel in both large and small details.
