FLOWERS, I LOVE FLOWERS

Finally got back to this painting that I started several weeks ago. My excuse is I was dealing with a kidney stone of all things.  That all has been taken care of and today is the first day I felt like painting. This is very close to being done, but I may get back to it when i look at it in a few days. I painted this from a picture my daughter sent me of the flowers her hubby gave her for Valentines Day. It was a very pretty bouquet and I liked the colors--I changed it a little. It was fun to paint --the colors of spring...(it did snow a little today, but springs warm weather will come, I know it will! Happy painting and Happy Easter season! God Bless

Flowers, I love flowers!

First block in--this for me is kinda getting the shapes placed--nothing in the right places for sure. the bottom picture shows I am trying to refine a little more (not much) placing colors. Really getting everything covered so I can see placement---this will go on for a while --each pass getting placements closer---have to let this dry a little so I can go further. I love painting flowers-hope you like watching!
I Think this is the first time I have liked my first block-in better than the 2nd I always hope my paintings get better as I go, but this time I like the first one --I like the "airiness"in the first block-in better. Hmmmm -I must remember that!
