Back to the Plumerias - Kauka Wilder

by Marcia Minnichhofer on 05/29/17

My 'Kauka Wilder Plumerias" will be 22x30" and on 300# Fabriano Artistico bright white watercolor paper. The paper does not handle scrubbing out of colors very well so I have to make sure I like the composition before I lay down paint. Those who have been following the progress of my paintings know that I often tweak the composition if something is not working.

This variety of plumeria has stunning yellow and orange/red colors. There will be glazes of color over the yellow centers.

Am starting with a lighter yellow for the main flowers. I will decide later whether to add other blossoms. The reference photo has a very dark background which I probably will eliminate. I enjoyed the simplicity of 'Sunrise Bouquet."
