ANOTHER floral painting! As I was packing up to leave the studio I looked at the tulips from yesterday, and 'saw' a new composition. They'd sat and gotten 'comfortable' under the light, and were opening up a little, and I painted them with a light lilac background. Now I have my 5 floral 12x12's for my submission. And now I think.... "they'll HATE floral still lifes!" Maybe I should put older work in! Deciding what to submit to juries is the hardest thing.
Mornin' Kelley,
ReplyDeleteI never tire of floral painting especially tulips....my favorite flower these days. This is beautiful.
Can always look at more tulips.....nicley done.
ReplyDeleteThe lilac background really works. And who could hate tulips? Definitely one of my favorite flowers - I've enjoyed your paintings of them.
ReplyDeleteBring them on Kelley, I like this one as much if not more than the last!
ReplyDeleteThis background is my favorite. I love the lilac color, with the yellow. Just a perfect combination!
ReplyDeleteYou should have no doubts! This is extremely beautiful! It makes me want to scream!
ReplyDeleteI can stand another one and another one without a problem; very lovely!!
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful painting. Your compositions are always right on.
ReplyDeleteHi Kelley,
ReplyDeleteI LOVE tulips and yours just sing Spring! Very lovely; I'm so glad you painted them and shared them.
Beautiful!! I like the lilac background and the "comfortable" tulips. Your composition is good and I like the greens - OK I like it all!

ReplyDeleteflowers get a bad rap. poor things, "don't hate me cuz i'm beautiful!" there's never too many floral paintings and this one is beautiful. there might be one in my future too. good luck.

Great job on this!
Nice composition and the sunny yellows are cheery and beautiful.
