Peak of Summer

I love painting a big bouquet of summer flowers. It becomes an intuitive process, not trying to get every petal and leaf in the precise location. I know painters who can’t stray from the realism but that just gives me a headache. Sometime a flower just looks better in the composition a little higher and to the left. Instead of physically moving it ,I just move it in my head. I think that might be hard for a beginning painter but since I have been doing art in some form for 60 years- not as hard!
