"Shades of Violet" is a vibrant watercolor painting on Aquabord where I capture the exquisite beauty of a single, blooming iris flower. The petals showcase rich shades of purple and violet, accented by delicate highlights of yellow and white. My meticulous detailing brings out the intricate structure of the flower, creating an enchanting, lifelike appearance. The realistic textures and subtle shading of the petals add depth and dimension, making the iris truly come to life.

The background, composed of various dark green hues, serves to accentuate the vivid colors of the flower, allowing it to stand out prominently. The focused composition draws your attention solely to the iris, encouraging a deep appreciation for its natural elegance. The interplay of colors and textures within the painting invites you to immerse yourself in the serene yet striking beauty of this single, stunning bloom.
