Yellow Roses (Liz Robbins 3rd on-line lesson)

This of course is not done....I , again did not use the right size canvas and the flowers kinda grew and I almost did not have enough room.  The lesson was about looking at shapes--not a rose or petals but the shapes of dark and light and warm and cool and it boggled my mind.  I think I made it harder then it needed to be.  I do that sometimes when I try to hard....I painted this while we had our first blizzard of the year.  Church was canceled and I painted Sunday and again today (Monday) as I didn't;t go to work because of the slick streets.
I tried to work on it today and the paint was not dry but tacky--not the best conditions for painting. I overworked and just was trying to get it done.  I hurried and posted it on instagram and also on the closed group that we have for all of us who take the on-line course.  I left the posting stay for about 10 minutes and then pulled them off as I knew I need to work more on the painting,  The blue flowers look so gray in the photo--I do not like the gray color.
Anyway, I'm glad I decided to work more on this painting--I think I can make it better---I hope...
Happy painting!
