Spider Mum


I am stretching myself and finding it challenging. I am trying very hard to place a color down and leave it. I am also trying to simplify as much as I possibly can. I left this painting when it was still fresh choosing not to rework it.

I love the slashes of brush strokes in the spider mum!

It's interesting to me to see how much detail is in your drawing. The painting is true to the drawing, but it has less detail. Very nice!

Thanks, Virginia...I purposefully kept the painting with less detail...sometimes I think that I work things to death!

Thank you, Kathy...it was tempting to overwork, but, I think that I learned something from this painting.

Peach Peony....Day 24

  6"X 6" Oil Ampersand Gessobord $125.00 I'm ready to chill out after this one.  It was really HARD!   So many petals going all different ways.  I am pleased with the results.  I have to laugh at myself....I thought of showing a step by step process in the painting of this peony....but....never looks like anything until the last few strokes!  I am happy with this painting however I got here.  This painting is found here :
