I finally got back to some painting. As always, it is so good, and such a luxury, to be able to spend the morning painting.

My exercise in negative painting and flowers continues. Or, in this case, it is probably more accurately described as a potted plant? Anyway, I just love working in blues and greens (and maybe a splash of orange). This is a long way from my initial idea of the types of paintings of flowers I would do – but actually a much more accurate reflection of the types of paintings of flowers I like to do!

This is only a small painting in size.  It was nice to work in a smaller scale than usual. It was also nice to keep the painting as an impression of flowers rather than getting caught up in the details.

Yes, it was a good morning of painting.
