Daily Painting 1398 Two Salmon Hibiscus miniature oil painting

I always liked these, I still have plants from cuttings of the original salmon hibiscus that I grew up with.   I tried twice to get the right colors from my painting onto the computer and had no luck.  Its pretty close, I think they look much prettier in real life, the oranges are softer and lighter in the painting.  The center of the right hibiscus is darker and so are the stamen ends.  I feel very frustrated, LOL!

Its a miniature painting, 4 x 6 inches, oil on masonite.  $100.
