Victoria Olson Art – Watercolor, Egg Tempera & Oil

I decided to develop the rose thinking it was going to wilt too fast.

Then I started drawing the crystal vase with a paintbrush, the same way I drew the rose.

Then I started developing the crystal vase trying to give it the same attention as I did to the rose.

The books and the crystal vase are competing too much.  Thinking back, I should have stopped in the previous step or developed the books more.
