Painting the Roses...pink

Roses!

Not sunflowers anymore.

Here is a photo of some roses that I have painted twice now. Maybe three times.

This is the point that I am at.

I am a little stuck.

We all get here and I have learned to step back and not touch anything until I have a plan.

From a distance, these look great but I want to finish them off properly.

I am trying to work on the realistic colors and shadows.

I find that getting the right color can allow forgiveness for impreciseness. It is one of those wonderful elements in loose realism that I love.

Lets see if I can figure this out.

Iris (19-14)

Another iris for the collection. This is a part of the spring collection that I am working on. I kept the background simple so the focus was on the main attraction, the bloom. The purple is a deep variation of colour and the top of the bloom is a gauzy white. This artwork could work in any room. It's small size allows for it to be a part of a larger compilation or in smaller spaces such as hallways, kitchen, or bathrooms. Iris (19-14) 6" by 6" oil on canvas board Click to buy with Paypal

Hydrangeas

It's that time of year! Hydrangeas have bloomed. Sunflowers have bloomed. If you want them all year round, here's the best way to keep them! All are still available!
