This is going to be sold as a Daily Painting, despite it's size. I couldn't find a 6x12 canvas, and I didn't want to make it a 6x6 today. So.... These are two of the first of our roses, blooming despite our battle with worms, aphids and spiders this Spring. Roses are so complex, I'm determined to conquer them this sumer. But rather than work, work, and overwork this one, I'm packing some water, fruit and a book and hoofing it to the beach for an hour or so :) (must refresh the senses...)
I love the colors in this painting. I would never have chosen that blue to go behind the deep green of the leaves but it looks terrific & makes them look so crisp & fresh
