Red Hydrangea

I immediately fell in love with this huge red hydrangea.  I know that it was dyed, but gosh, it is just gorgeous.  Red is my favorite color.....!   This is painted on an 8"x 8" Clayboard.....and I hate the surface of the clay board...it just sucks all the oil out of the paint.  I will never buy this again.  Any of you have similar results?  I thought I was buying Gessoboard which I love.

I haven't tried clay board but have had similar experiences with some surfaces, like a few canvases I bought and I hated painting in them. gOod to know what we like and what we don't, right? Gesso board is by far my favourite! I like how loose your painting is Linda!

Hi, Marcela....glad to hear that you have had similar experiences....when the paint can't move it is very frustrating! Thanks for commenting!

  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 :
