The Practice of Flowers

 For over a year now, I have been getting together with 3 other artist friends and painting flowers - mostly roses - that grow in the garden of one of the friends where we meet.

It's often an exercise in frustration, but the challenge of painting them has been a great practice. Color mixing, tonal contrasts, composition, paint surface, structure, etc. are all part of the problem solving process. Most of these are small 6”x8”s or a square 6”x6”.
