Chrysanthemums

8"x8" Oil on gessoboard
$150.00 +s/h


I did this painting just before I moved house and have been meaning to post it all week! At last I have some breathing space!! Hopefully I can get back to painting next week. I haven't painted flowers for a while, so I bought a bunch of  Mums to paint but ran out of time and could only salvage these few before they wilted!!

I love chocolates...definitely one of life's little pleasures I think! This painting was a bit of a challenge... I find orange hard to paint and the wrapper was a nightmare!! With a bit of perseverance I ended up feeling ok with it!!
It is good to get back to painting! I had a great holiday with my family and I didn't want to leave them!! I did realize though, that I am lucky I can paint...it helps to pass the time doing what I love! Now all I have to do is shift house, build another studio, then I can paint every day again!!
