About this work

This image shows two views of a bright orange flower with six petals and long green leaves. One side displays the flower in full bloom, while the other side shows the bulb at the base with roots. The background is plain and light-colored, keeping all focus on the plant’s details. The orange petals have a slightly waxy look, and the leaves are drawn with careful lines. The bulb side reveals how the plant grows from underground. Next, try looking up *watercolor* to see how artists use this technique.
