magnolia and daffodil

[eller]

Two more postcards for Postcrossing. Simple flowers, my comfort zone - I can produce these reasonably fast.





The daffodil actually does not involve any watercolor - that's transparent acrylics with lots of water. The magnolia is colored with watercolors, in the same style. The preliminary drawings and final highlights were done with acrylic pens.

Thanks! :D I love bright colors, and I'm always happy when I can use them.

These are glorious! I love the bright, saturated colors and the sense of joy.

I love daffodils but have not seen them in some years - they don't seem to be popular here (or maybe they don't grow in my climate?).

YESSS I was aiming for saturated, HAPPY colors! :D Thank you!

I love how substantial they feel.
