Flowers are my favourite thing to paint..geraniums give you the opportunity to use so many different shades of red.

I left the background white so the red is the dominant color...a white mat and frame would make it a crisp, clean painting.

I used Cadmium red, Cadmium orange and a touch of ultramine blue in the cad red to blue down some of the petals
