Rose Study #1



Rose Study #1

 6x8 oil on canvas board  $85.

I did this painting before I left Albuquerque to return home after the Qiang workshop. The rose was in a tiny water bottle and I loved the quirky juxtaposition of the soft beauty of a rose next to a commercial, plastic container.
I will be doing a series of the rose studies so I can incorporate what I learned from Qiang Huang while it is fresh in my mind.

  1. Very nice light on the rose. I like the dark background with the light on the flower. Nice brushstrokes on the petals, too.
