Climbing - Framed

I love using the white of the watercolor paper to depict white in real life subjects.  In this case it's a clematis flower, set against the rich foliage, buds and flowers in the background.  I kept the palette relatively cool, with lime greens and blues to indicate depth, with some purple added for interest, showing a bud about to bloom.
