Flowers











In yet another hairbrained attempt to develop, I started painting a floral still life once a week.
Flowers are hard. The detail is eye catching, the intense colors interfere with harmony, and the translucense confuses the shadow and light. I figured that learning to simplify and abstract would be crucial and carry over to all my work. I think it is working, but most of all, I am having fun!

  1. I love the loose brushstrokes and colors in the persimmon and blue vase painting.
