I just finished this 8×10 iris painting titled "After Spring Showers". The reference for the piece was taken from my garden after a rain shower. :)

Here is a detail view of one of the iris blossoms in the painting.
Paintings of Wildlife & Nature by Rebecca Latham
Paintings by international wildlife artist Rebecca Latham. Featuring North American animals, birds, & nature in watercolor painted in miniature.
Is this piece worked in water colors as well?
Would you happen to have a higher resolution of this one?
It looks stunning to my eyes, but also teases me since I can’t look at the fine details. ;)
Yes, the iris painting was painted in watercolor. (Really, every painting posted in my blog is painted in watercolor unless specified otherwise.) :)
I do have a higher resolution version of that painting, but I am hesitant to post the full image on the internet, so I posted a portion of it for you. There are so many people that copy and rip off images and artists online — it’s too bad.
Truly remarkable!
Rebecca this is truly a masterpiece and I enjoy your detail on your paintings.I am a professional photographer and and could hardly match the detail.Congratulations on a wonderful piece. Can’t wait to view your blog. Tom
That is truly one of the most beautiful watercolored iris I have ever seen. You have a wonderful touch and I can tell you love flowers. The iris is one of my favorite flowers.
Hi Hi, Tom, & Clara – Thank you! :D
I am working on a new one at the moment. I really love being able to squeeze some vibrant florals into the mix of wildlife paintings. :D The latest iris piece should be done fairly soon…for a show this summer… :D
