Here's a new one just list in my Etsy shop. I took the reference photo a few years back at an Armstrong's Garden, nearby. I remember it was a hot day, but in the shade, the light was filtering through the wood trellis and was so beautiful. I got my phone out and captured the light. I don't think I could have painted it like this back then. I've been reading a lot of art books and have done several workshops in the last few years. I feel I have had an aha moment, mostly about color. I'm also thinking about edges, composition, so much. I thought I already knew enough, but the more I learn the more I realize I need to keep practicing.
This is what keeps me going, keeps me inspired, and most importantly, keeps me happy.
The one below was painted from the same palette but from some flowers I bought. I painted it over a week and now the flowers have wilted. I always seem to place the large flower in the middle. Next time I will spend more time on the composition instead of just jumping in! I do that because my painting time is limited because of my other job. Someday I will have more time again, but for now it's done in increments.
