Reflections of Innocence, white rose

"Reflections of Innocence"


About this painting:

This is the first of a set of roses reflecting in the water. I love the movement in the water, and the interesting shapes in the back ground. Of course the rose takes center stage, as it should.
Thanks for looking!

Media: Acrylic on hardboard
Size: 9 x 12
SOLD
This is a commissioned painting, If you are interested in a unique gift for the holidays now is the time to get started! I work on them in the order they come in, and need a good month to get them done. (That includes ordering specific supplies, working up the rough drafts, painting the original , sealing it, allowing for drying time, and finally shipping them out.) I will not be accepting commissions in the middle of November.

About This Painting:
Did this little one alla prima (all in one session). It makes for thick paint and lovely texture. The paint creates exciting patterns as it blends under the knife. I painted it from memory. It is always fun to paint with a knife. You never know exactly what you will get!

Enchanting Love, purple rose

"Enchanting Love"

About This Painting:
This is the first of a set of Enchanting Roses! The colors are a little more red-violet in the actual paintings than the image is showing here. These roses are so stunning, and the contrasting yellow shades really set it off.
It is custom made, and created by exchanging ideas. What a fun way to come up with original art!
If you are thinking about having one done as a gift, now is the time. Especially for larger works. I will start a waiting list as it gets closer to the holidays.
