Peony Revisited



These were peonies that were rejected in the choosing of the ommission paintings.  I painted 4 extra and so I had plenty for the customer to choose from.  I decided to go back into the unfinished paintings and beef them up a bit.  THEY SOLD  I am very happy with the way that they turned out.  What do you think?  I think I need to let things rest for a while before deciding they are done.  By the end of the commission marathon I was tired and so they were not as good as the earlier ones.  A week away and fresh eyes really helped.

I am enjoying landscape painting so much.  It is partly because the Finetec waterolors that I use.  They are so incredibly beautiful....ssooooo beautiful.....each stroke is a stroke of LOVE....... www.lindahuntfineart.com

VANITY SOLD

I LOVE 'girl' things like lipstick, perfume, nail polish bottles, and pretty little compact cases. In this painting I was working for limited strokes. I would lay down the paint and leave it without manipulating it in any way. 6X6 inches oil Raymar canvas panel (Archival)

LITTLE ORANGE TEAPOT SOLD

Red Orange is another of my favorite colors. When I saw this great tea pot in one of the stores in town I wanted it right away. But, I thought and thought about it and when I went back to the store it was still there and I decided that it was mine! I am not a tea drinker but I have always loved the shapes and sizes and variety of design of teapots. In this painting I backlit the teapot with natural and studio lighting. I was experimenting with the changing values and shadow. 8X8 inches oil Raymar Canvas Panel (Archival)
