A beautiful rose, I don’t know the name of, I like the full rounded head and two tone petal colours. Really difficult to paint! There is a tendency to get lost in the layers of complex petals – simplifying! But still getting the essence of it.
The photo has a bit of shine on it so I may take it again tomorrow.
Had a busy Open Studio day which we weren’t expecting for a Friday. Nick, my husband is also showing his photographic work in his studio opposite mine. Here he is on my studio floor with our dog Matte getting cuddles in between visitors today.
