Spring slowly moves towards summer and my rhododendrons’ buds start to unfold into blousy blooms. I tried this before, last week, but over-emphasised the colours and deadened the image. This version looks a bit weak, but the freshness is retained and the lefthand bloom captures the attention to my satisfaction.

Love the appearance of an inner glow, only way I can describe it. Beautiful ❤️

Thanks Margaret. It’s letting the underpainting poke through. The first version swamped it and the painting died.

Beautiful flowers. Our Rhodedondron was beautiful this year. Its one of our first flowers to come out in the spring.
