Blackthorn in bloom


Flowers are not my main subject, but sometimes I like to do them.
I'm still exploring the technique with gouache and watercolour on heavy 'all black' paper. So the white little flowers of the blackthorn are really nice to get some experience. 
Here I worked with several layers of gouache, to get a really white flower. For the hearts of the flowers I applied pure watercolour paint on the white gouache. I was surprised how easy it was...
