Plum Blossoms II

The only thing that I did different with these, is to spray the initial charcoal drawing with clear varnish so that I could then smear my paint without getting the charcoal mixed in the color.  True, the drawing nearly disappeared under the color, but I was able to let some remain and then work on top again with charcoal building one medium on top of the other.

Now most of these blooms have already fallen.
