Sunflowers in Cobalt Blue Vase, Oil on 5 "x7" Linen Panel SOLD Private Collection in San Saba, TX First, I must say that everything I paint is because I absolutely love. I don't like to paint things that I don't find to be attractive to me for one reason or another. Sometimes it's sentimental reasons and other times it's as simple as beautiful colors or the texture. Either way, it's something that I want to capture and stare at for long periods of time. I want to study it and how it affects the environment around it, as in the case of Sunflowers in Cobalt Blue Vase does. In that respect, I feel ALL my paintings are a labor of love. More often than not, I have to create a painting, wipe it all down, and start all over again if something is just not working. Some never get completed and I just end up painting something totally different on that panel. Then there are some, that I just have to paint, no matter how much trouble they are giving
I think it is a lovely idea to have wedding flowers done as a painting. It is such a romantic way of remembering the special day and you can see them when ever you want to. Beautiful artwork a joy to look at. Kind regards Sally
ReplyDeleteSally, I agree that the bride had a lovely idea of capturing her wedding flowers in paintings. I am also working on one of her bouquet that I am particularly excited about. Thank you so much for the lovley visit and the wonderful compliment. Best wishes,
