I am constantly picking up new bulb and plant varieties to add to my gardens, often times forgetting what I put where until they bloom! This is the first bloom of these beauties, so of course I had to paint them before the rain! With brush, I block in the color masses, adding depth with a knife and thicker paint to finish. I like the loose impressionistic strokes dropped while squinting to really see where those highlights pop! It's fun to get loose and fresh with such a subject! Painting number 3019 in 3019 days.
