Often the most simple set up is the most effective. This painting combines lilacs with white mock orange blooms. My dad grew the mock orange for years and they lined the fence lines at my parents’ home. I like to paint them as a memorial to him but also the white adds that perfect lightest value to make a good painting. I try to have some arrangement of darkest dark, medium and lightest white for a successful painting. To me that is more important than perfect drawing. Happy New Year. Last year was great but not necessarily the best for some family members. I am looking forward to a year filled with good health for everyone.
