White Roses

14 x 18 oil on gessobord

This one was tough for me since I'm not experienced with florals.  I learned a few things while working on this one though;  I like to stretch myself trying things that aren't so comfortable.  I love flowers, I just get lost in all the intricacies of their petals!!!!

Double Whammy

12 x 12 oil on stretched canvas

A double whammy for me for sure!  I was trying to paint in a higher key plus trying to paint roses!  Tough, but I learned a few things in the process I think.  I will have to try this same pose again and see what results the next time.  I still want it to be much lighter!
