I love using this more dramatic lighting but the model had a hard time dealing with the brightness but she was a real trooper and posed anyway.   Thanks Liz!

Blue Vase 8"x8" oil

Sold

This bouquet is made up of three different colors of hydrangeas and some of the last of the season.   My favorite part was the blue vase and the way the light comes through.

This one is the smaller 6"x6" format.   I love the way these two Hydrangeas vary in color, one is warm while the other is cool.   COOL!

Night light 8"x10" oil

Sold

After a long hiatus one of our favorite models has returned to us and we are thrilled.   I always like dramatic lighting especially when the light is from a lower level.   I saw someone's work this week that reminded me of how much I like the drama of this lighting.

One purple Hydrangea 8"x8" oil

Sold

These purple hydrangeas must be hearty because they have lasted so long.   They have the most beautiful blue centers in the middle of each cluster.

Kelly 9"x12" oil

The studio that we have our Friday sessions in was hot but we had on 5 fans which helped to keep us comfortable.   Kelly was a trooper keeping her pose the whole time, with breaks of course.  This was my effort this morning.

It has been fun to paint these flowers and it amazes me that they come in so many colors and variations.  Seems like when I was a kid the only came in pink and blue and somewhere in between.

Don;t you know that I have relaxed so much since I decided not to paint daily that I even forget to post even when I do a painting!   I painted this on Monday July 2 and due to my relaxed life style, am just now posting.   I love these lovely purple Hydrangeas.
