Watercolor challenge: Clary sage (#3)

in #watercolorchallenge7 years ago (edited)

Clary sage is a wonderful herbaceous plant. It's essential oil helps women to balance hormones and soothe menstrual pains. It has antidepressant, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties as well. Long time ago it had also been used to savour wines.

It was a serious challenge for me to draw and paint the flowers. Don't believe? If you try, you will find it difficult. But a lot of practice brings the expected result.
