Tissue Paper and WILDFLOWERS

WILDFLOWERS
Watercolor 11x15

I began this watercolor by painting through tissue paper which creates a fun and crazy texture to get your creative juices flowing. After it dried I removed the tissue and began pulling out the shapes of the flowers and leaves. I tried to paint as little as necessary to retain the loose feel of the painting. What do you do to keep yourself from overworking a painting?
