Rose and Lily, watercolor (10×7)

Lately I’ve just been doing little watercolor landscapes and florals—nothing very unusual except I have been practicing working wet on wet. I haven’t been very ambitious lately, but I want to do some still lifes or something along those lines in the next week. I am feeling a little uninspired overall, but I am trying to keep on practicing because I feel I will never improve otherwise. I did this rose and lily a few weeks ago from some flowers that Jeet gave me. I do like how the rose came out and I like it’s color. Lately, I’ve been disappointed with myself because I feel I’ve been overworking my watercolors and making up the colors too muddy.
