Promise

SOLD
Painted this "blushing bride" tall bearded iris in a larger scale than I normally paint!
Looks even more dramatic.  Love irises!
Hope you have a super time playing at your easel today!

Daisies in glass milk jug


Bought this vintage glass milk jug yesterday and the daisies!  I love the happy feeling in this painting.  Daisies are simple yet bold.  Hope you had a great weekend.  Happy painting this week!

Harmony


SOLD
Here are a few steps to show how I lay out the tulip painting!  Start by covering the canvas in transparents colors.  Then add white to shape where the tulips are. Then I just keep adding detail.  And then I added the background of Payne's grey to darken the background and pop the tulips out!
Hope this helps a little.  I have got to figure out video so I can add video to my blogs!! If only there was two of me.:)
Hope you had a great weekend.

P.S.
A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.
