dropping paint

I've been doing a lot of experimenting lately using various papers and just dropping watercolor paint onto a really watered down piece of paper.  In this painting I just dropped oranges,yellows, and reds and just moved the paint around.  Once it was dry, I went back in and added some red to form flowers.  When the paper was dry, I took my black sharpie and looked for shapes and lined those in.  The completed painting reminded me of sunsets that I sometimes see living in the high desert.
