This flower grabbed my attention as I walked toward the pier in Oceanside, CA. The intense pink is a color that I can easily work into one of my paintings. I love being able to pull out my iPhone to capture and keep a reference for my future art. The iPhone editing capabilities allow me to crop my photos to eliminate any unwanted distractions. I like being able to enlarge the photo to observe natural textures and differences in colors. In this photo, I love the burnt orange and yellow in the center of the flower. I’m looking forward to experimenting with this color combination.
