pink peonies

Hi there! It's day 2 in 30:
 I have an 8" x 8" oil painting to share featuring pink peonies:
I'm working on loosening up my brushstrokes and not trying to kill the flower with too many highlights:
I'm linking my painting to this week's Paint Party Friday site:
Thanks so much for looking!
Be Sweet :)

    You definitely did NOT kill that peony with too many highlights! It's beautiful and looks just like the ones that grow beside my front step. :)
