Painted yesterday during our Open Studios. A busy day with 21 people coming to visit, I’ve sold 12 paintings to date – got plenty more!! But exciting to have sales and lovely feed back!
This year there are many wild daisies, great blankets of them, they look lovely and I wanted to try and paint them. I experimented with the background colour, I thought it looked like sky and goes well with the white and yellow, also a darker tone than the white petals.
Order I painted this: Green stems, background blue, yellow centres – green and orange variations, mid tone white of the petals blocked shapes, glass, shadows on table. Thats it mainly blocked in and I went back and added light and darks on the petals, and cutting in a little with the blue background to define the petal shapes.
I like the bold shapes and intense colours, I will have to try another one! Our studios (my husband and I) again today, I wonder what the day will bring…. 🙂
