Flowers Again

[Enyaw]

Playing. Using a black and white for reference and making the colors up as I get into the painting. It's a familiar theme so it shouldn't be that tough to get a approximation. And it's interesting to see approximately how close it comes to conveying a glass or tin of flowers. I find I am finding a lot of color after I put the wrong color in to begin with. I need to get it straight in my head before I put it down. It's interesting, to say the least.

both are 11 x 14 oil on paper ..

Black thick frame and both are perfect. good job here.

 

[Enyaw]

thank you Lazarus .. good idea for finish. I have actual Plein Air frames that work very well, no matte, but this is just a digital mock up.

Once again, beautiful. Looks like hydrangeas and pine cones. The glass reads glass and the other one reads carnival glass. Love them.

 

[Lazarus]

perfect.

 

[Enyaw]

Thanks Sno. Carnival glass. I still have a piece or two. This was a metal pail but I'll take anything that gets past go directly to jail: do not pass go.

 

[Artyczar]

Beauties!

 

[Enyaw]

thanks Arty .. add one more on the same theme ..

 

[Terri]

How beautiful they are! The first one grabs me the most, that little bit of blue along the top just makes it for me.

Fantastic work, Wayne.

 

[snoball]

Lovely. This one reads more brass, to me at least. Well done!

The way you apply the paint in your flower paintings is inspiring. I love the colours as well.

Really nice Wayne, you have got the essence that we spoke of... the colours that came out are subtle but complementary.

 

[fedetony]

Very nice indeed... I like the petals, gives a higher sense of space, and a story...

 

[Artyczar]

Love the pink.

 

[laf.art]

Gorgeous, I love them

 

[Enyaw]

Well. Thank you all very much. Decided to try and knock it back even further. Used the cold pthalo blue, perm rose, lemon yellow, titanium white, and burnt sienna as my warm. Struggled a bit but got a piece out of it. Using the same template as I am more concerned about value and color at the moment.

 

[Lazarus]

At this one you had to start deep value first under the roses. the purple shadow very good.

 

[Jo Castillo]

I like the first one in the bucket. I'm casual, ha. All are so beautiful. I love your technique.

 

[Enyaw]

Thanks Lazarus and Jo

Still gonna give it another spin. I'm not sure what I am tryin' to do but as long as it's spinning I'll give it a go.
