A hollyhock completion!

I've gotten it finished- just in time for my last outdoor show of the season. I really like this painting- if I sell it this weekend it will be one of my fastest turnarounds ever. I love these hollyhocks and I will be sad to see this painting go to a new home. It will be funnier, though, if I work this hard to complete it and then no one gives it a second look! I will get to have it longer that way!
The hollyhock I bought with my son a couple weeks ago actually has some buds on it now. Maybe transplanting it jumpstarted it somehow! I'd love to get some photos of my own hollyhock- and at this time of year that would be something.
The weather forecasts don't look to good for the Lewiston show this weekend. Wet weather and watercolors....not a good mix! My tent does a pretty good job keeping us dry. If it's a real bad storm, well.....! We'll soon see!
