Fall Pansies are always so fun to paint.  These bright yellow faces are painted with transparent orange and viridian in the shadow areas and then cad yellow deep to cad lemon to the brightest part of the flower.  The background was laid in after painting the pansies with a wash of transparent brown plus French ultra blue and then in areas picked up Alizarin to vary the back ground keeping areas transparent.  The main thing I wanted to achieve in this painting is to give you the feel of layers in the plant making the main flower to come forward.
