Cyclamen

I saw small cyclamen in a friend’s garden the other day, peeping through the snow, all pink and shapely. The flowers are so striking in form and colour. And the leaves are a delight.

It reminded me of a watercolour I did last year. I was experimenting with composition outside the frame. But as always, a limited palette of the three primaries plus burnt sienna, with initial drawing in pen and ink.
