I spent some days studying magnolia flowers from the tree in the back of the house. I started when the flowers were in the tree. It started raining and I brought one to the house. It stayed white for just some minutes before it started to turn brown. Here are some of the sketches. I used them to do some watercolors and little oil paintings.

A good study subject. They have a flavor of old-world style. Does the water-soluble ink remain soluble after it dries? Very nice!
