Apple Blossoms
Apple Blossoms
11x14in demo - not for sale
This was the afternoon demo on Monday.
I used another oriental inspired vase as I think it enhances the beauty of these blossoms.
Artist Note.
This was started with a pink tones canvas and then I lifted out the basic design using a cloth
wrapped around my finger- same method and steps as on previous blog.
I went into a tiny bit of fracturing on the flowers and background.
Still exploring how to do that.

Of course the painting is stunning Julie, but her I really love the luscious richness and color of the background. xx
