Peony Still Life Giclee, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 14x18x1.5" Canvas Print

I painted this peony oil still life recently, at a workshop.  I was concentrating on brushwork and values.  The original is NFS, but I liked it enough to offer a limited number of prints.

My workshop paintings have a different feel than most of my artwork.  I think it is from the high level of concentration, that I feel in the classroom.

PEONY, 11X14, OIL

Still trying to paint flowers. This one was more difficult for me. I just could not achieve the vibrant hues I wanted!

My neighbor is a physician and an avid gardener. He brought me this lovely flower from his garden before the deluge last night that would surely have pummeled it to pieces. A lovely surprise on an otherwise dismal afternoon lifted my spirits. Flowers can do that, as acts of pure generosity. Had to paint it. A fun filled alla prima hour for me.
