Roses Class at NBG

Hi! Yesterday was my Roses Class at Norfolk Botanical Gardens. We had 4 students,pictured are Kathy,Bobbie, and Jeffery.. also Corey. We had a lovely time.Here are the roses from the gardens we enjoyed painting. Yes they smelled divine,so very sweet and different smells for different roses. We all painted roses. Kathy, a large red rose, which involved lots of glazing, Jeffery, chose a yellow one, Bobbie a peach rose,and Corey, did an orange one.All did a beautiful job. I did demonstrations,and we went over ..sketching,basic washes,... We had an exercise in contour drawing and filled the day with watercolor and roses...how wonderful! Have a great rest of  your weekend. talk to you soon,Diana
