See You Again

 

This is a 9x12 oil on panel. The subject matter is a favorite of mine; hydrangea blooms. The painting is based on a limited palette so I had to rely on values more than color to make it work. The glass vase relies on lights and darks to show the transparency of light. I don’t think I will ever tire of painting these flowers!

Wait For The Moon

 I love bright colors; but also enjoy the challenge of a limited palette. This painting consisted mainly of blue, green and white. Because it was fairly neutral, I had to develop interest in other ways. The flowers were all white but there were many shades of white to create interest.The green shapes have a lot of variety. Even though the painting is very abstract , the viewer can still tell what it represents.

   I love to paint bottles and jars as vases for flowers. They makes the arrangements much more      interesting. The variety of blooms keep the viewer’s attention within the picture plane. Color harmony has been addressed to make a pleasing painting.
