Yellow Daisies

8"x6" Oil on gessoboard

I picked a few of these small daisies and just plonked them in this vase to stand on my window ledge...but decided to paint them first. I like the shape of this small vase and I find yellow a difficult color to paint sometimes, so thought it would be a good challenge for me...and It was!!



Another very nice surprise..."Olive Snack" was selected for FASO's Fav 15% in theApril Boldbrush Competition....I can't believe it! That is the second one, It is really encouraging!

  1. Congratulations! I love your olive snack. It is encouraging when someone else says your work is wonderful. The daisy vase is beautiful as well but the glass looks so smooth glossy. Love it.
