Tropical Blooms
Oil on wood panel, 8x10 |
Somedays, I am simply too busy to even eat. On this completely packed day, I have been hard pressed to finish this painting, which I started yesterday. My brother lives in Florida, and had sent me the image of these flowers he had captured while biking through dense terrain. The wood panel was a previous landscape block-in, which I had heavily textured first. I negatively painted the blooms, then began to add the pinks. The knife adds so much interest on this heavy texture since it skips along the rough texture in unexpected ways. I have no idea what these blooms are - as my brother is no botanist, and we don't have these beauties in Missouri! Painting number 928 in 928 days.
