Fireweed progression.....adding the FIREWEED


Bringing in the Fireweed, the beautiful brightly colored wildflower that grows in the Northern Hemisphere. The name Fireweed comes from the plants' proliferation on burnt sites after forest fires.

I initially put in a background of Alizarin Crimson with splashes of Light Magenta on top to bring out the vibrant pink of the wildflower, with pieces of Cadmium Yellow Light splashed in for the stigma.

Just about finished!

"Walk into the fields and look at the wildflowers. They don't fuss with their appearance - but have you ever seen color and design quite like it.....If God gives such attention to the wildflowers, most of them never even seen, don't you think he'll attend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you?"
Luke 12:27-28 The Message
