Floral Watercolor ACEOs

Along with painting landscapes, I love to paint flowers.  I tend to paint little free flowing flowers, occasionally allowing the colors to mingle right on the paper.  I have created dozens of these in ACEO (2.5x3.5") size, also 4x6, 5x7, 1/8th sheets ... I have tried a few on 1/4 sheets of watercolor paper but I seem to like the smaller size better for this style of flower.  Most likely, just personal preference in creating these miniature florals.  A popular series of mine were my Autumn Poppies Series filled with orange, red and yellow flowers.  

Check out the ACEO section of my Etsy shop for original watercolor florals and more!  ACEOs are definitely a popular size for artists to paint.  On Etsy, I am a member of the street team dedicated to ACEOs.   You can do a search on Etsy for the ACETSY Team to see a variety of ACEOs available there.  

Bouquet of Posies seen here, is an original watercolor ACEO only 2.5x3.5" it is one of the many little floral paintings available in my Etsy Shop: http://squier.etsy.com
