Purple Crocus

5x7"
pastel on archival sanded paper
Crocus are thefirst flowers that come up around my house.
A welcomed sight, after a cold, uncolorful winter.
For today's painting, I wanted to make the blooms really pop
with color, so I used a dark background to help with that. Notice
that it's not black either. Just an intensely dark purple.
