One of the joys of living in Florida are the almost year round flowers in our landscapes. Hibiscus is one of the most used here, and with good reason. They are easy to grow, beautiful and available in many colors and one of the first to bloom in the spring and late in the winter season.
This one is a study in reds. Elio Camacho states that red is the most difficult color to paint. When you can paint a "red" painting, you have arrived (in the art world).
This does not qualify as a "red" painting in my mind. A "red" study usually has several red objects, each with it's own shades of red.

Still, this is good practice.
Elio likes to present his more advanced students with set ups that are all yellow, or blue, or green etc. It is only the bravest who attempt the dreaded "all red" set up.
