Bluer blues

Pat asked for bold blues, so I am making my way around this painting, on the every other petal method, adding more cobalt blue.  I use a black and white photo to decide where to darken things up a bit.  I use my fingers a lot to smear the edges, so that they don't look like brushstrokes.  I am also dotting and smearing in some of the light areas that are too light right now.  Can you tell which petals are done and which are not?
