Iris Fire and Iris Ice Capades

Finally managed to finish this off yesterday. It is to be submitted to the Littlehampton Open, for which the theme is Fire and Ice.

Painted with St Petersburg White Nights watercolour paints, on Daler Rowney Aquarelle 300 gsm paper. It measures approx 12" by 9".

A real struggle with the composition, bit it seems to work OK now. Acknowledging the influence of Cedric Morris.
