Day 17
Artist Note
This was done a few weeks ago.
It went through some changes today
as I freshened it up.
my eyes not only had to get
accustomed to painting
something other than interiors...
but also the result of a visit to the retina
specialist earlier today.
I am attempting to paint
and type with dilated pupils.
A riot! I do know
the blue colors are not quite this vivid.
Dont forget to check out all the
wonderful paintings on the 30 in 30 Challenge
Beautiful bouquet!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful work of art!
ReplyDeleteEverything is Perfect.
Sunflowers are such an engaging subject. Just looking at them uplifts the spirit. Painting them carries you higher I applaud your perserverence. Taking on challenges pays off with pride and appreciable skill. Good for you.
ReplyDeleteBonjour chère amie,
ReplyDeleteJe suis émerveillée par la prodigieuse peinture que vous venez de peindre tout en ayant les pupilles dilatées après votre examen !
Lorsque je subis ce genre de chose je suis incapable de fixer longtemps quelque chose sans fermer les yeux. La lumière m'agresse et les couleurs aussi !...
La composition de votre peinture est fabuleuse et il y règne une belle énergie. Toute la lumière qui assaille vos yeux est renvoyée agréablement sur votre sujet.
♡ Gros bisous ♡
Beautiful volume and depth of color here. You are making the challenge look too easy.... The sign of an excellent artist!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful flower composition !!!

Dilated pupils apparently does not hurt your ability to paint, my friend. This is gorgeous and I absolutely love the petal textures!
ReplyDeleteThe piece in the last post is just so beautiful! Such an elegance to this home and bringing the outdoors in through the door was a magical move!
I love yellow with blue ! Magnifique bouquet de tournesols qui évoquent la fin de l'été.

Julie - hope your eyes are alright. Your dilated pupils didn't get in the way of freshening up this gorgeous painting. Love the blues with these gorgeous sunflowers. You paint so wonderfully. Take care.
