Gum blossom and their gum nuts are an absolute wonder of nature. The fluffy stamens bursting from knarly pods are an exceptionally inspirational subject to try and capture.
This impressionist watercolour of a gorgeous large mallee gum blossom is colourful and fun and is painted on Arches heavy, rough watercolour paper.
If you're a lover of our Australian flora,
' Blossoming ' would be a great addition to your collection. A crisp white matt and white or oak frame will enhance it perfectly.
