Floral Studies

For the next week or so, I'll be working on flower studies because 
I'm concurrently working on a larger floral piece.

After working on a larger canvas (30" by 40") (Monday) I noticed a significant change in my
 brushstrokes (much more free). Here you can see that I have loosened up my brushstrokes
 (although it's a smaller panel) and am trying larger (flat) brushwork. The background has also
 gotten darker and I'm hoping it makes a more dramatic effect. I'm enjoying the creamy
 yellows as opposed the pinks I've been previously using.

Spring Rhythm

This is another one of my faves! It's a softer Spring piece but there is something almost musical about the flow throughout. The yellow flowers were trimmed from my rosebush out in the front yard. The rest of the arrangement came from Creekview Floral, who do amazing bouquets and arrangements.  "Spring Rhythm" 12 x 16 oil on canvas This one needs a new home!
