Sketches on black paper continued

I picked the mallow (on the left) whilst out on my daily walk.  I started with gouache for this study and was finding it difficult to get a dense coverage and, as I only have a limited range of colours, I finished by mixing my watercolours with white gouache.

For the white passion flower I used a base of diluted gesso, with gouache, coloured pencil and watercolour for the leaves and flower details.
