The Little Dahlia
This is an original watercolor painting of an small pink dahlia bloom. Examining flowers this small allows me to capture the quiet elegance of a moment in soft blush tones. The gentle curvature of each petal, combined with the loose yet intentional brushwork, evokes a sense of organic movement and fleeting beauty. A warm yellow center anchors the composition, while deep green foliage offers a striking contrast, grounding the piece with depth and balance. The white background allows the subject to breathe, inviting quiet reflection. This work embodies the subtlety and precision of nature observed closely, inviting the viewer into a moment of stillness and grace.
This painting is 7×7 inches, on 300 lb Arches watercolor paper.
