This week in my Saturday class we discussed composing a painting with Negative Space in mind. That's the space BETWEEN the branches, the shapes being determined by their relative distance from other shapes. I think Forsythia is an excellent example, although chairs, trees, and such do a great job as well. Well, too, the blue jar was as fun as the flowers to paint!
I hope you enjoy these lively flowers!
Great complementary scheme, Kelley. Do you know what kind of flowers these are? I ask because we have a big bush on one side of the house that grows flowers like these in the spring. I wonder if they are the same type?
ReplyDeleteExuberance is an excellent know for this gem of a painting. So vibrant and luscious. Congrats! xoxo
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful Kelley! The flowers pop out of the blue background.
