Late Afternoon Primroses by Ann Mortimer
Watercolour 31×24cm W an N artists watercolour on Saunders Waterford 200lb cold press paper.
The weak early Spring sunshine is skimming these primroses and making them backlit. I was interested in the light above all else.

ohhh lovely! Great how the light just catches the top tips of the petals … great simplification of the leaves too :-)
Thank you Barb. The light was the main focus so I summarised the leaves…my excuse anyway!
