“Zinnia Garden with Monarch” captures the essence of a late summer garden that is alive with color and motion. The artwork is a mix of soft washes and bold strokes, combining watercolor with colored pencil and wax pastel. The zinnia flowers are in vivid hues of magenta, orange, yellow, red, pink, and white. A monarch butterfly rests peacefully on a white zinnia blossom. The background suggests depth and foliage by blending deep greens, blues, and hints of warm browns.
