A quick study, and it made a change from cats and dogs!

Roses?

Oil on 8x10 board

Love them and so many different varieties, the two I tackle for practice has given me a new out look on these beauties.

I know patience is a virtue but these really gave me a lot to see, twists and turns light and shade the most complicated flower I think to paint and make it look like what you see!

Amazing when you sit in front of flowers after a while it's not just the main colour you think it is, delicate touches you wouldn't notice at a brief glance and making the depth with a variation of the same hue is fascinating.

So for now before I get totally squirrelly I decided to leave roses alone for a while!

A "Rose" Painting

"Rose" oil on 8x10 board

The first of a series of rose paintings, I want to learn about petals now, what a difference from fur!

This one was from a birthday card, but the next are from very well done photographs.
A whole new experience!
