Simply Flowers 3


Simply Flowers 3, 12" x 12", acrylic on canvas

The photo reference for these flower paintings are from quite a few years ago.  Since just back from the desert it made me think of the time lag between seeing something of interest, taking the photo and then painting it.  Hopefully the time lag between taking the desert photos and painting them wont be so long, otherwise I will run out of time!..So many wonderful things to paint.

Simply Flowers

Simply Flowers, 12" x 12", acrylic on canvas

I always feel like painting flowers this time of year..as if by painting them spring will arrive!.   Maybe that is the point of painting, to create ones own reality.?  Thoughts anyone on the point of painting?
Its really a joy to get out yellows, reds, pink and oranges and squeeze them out on the palette.
