Impression of Roses

Impression of Roses

6x8in oil on canvas panel $140. SOLD

Artist Note

This is another painting 

following the Transparent

underpainting demo I 

showed on my previous post.

This demo was to see how 

far opaques could be used 

and still keep the glow.

Only the dark areas

are truly transparent with 

tiny areas of a thin layer

 of Indian Yellow 

peeking here and there

though everywhere else.

This one is more decorative

in style. More of an illusion.

The flowers are interesting

because only one has the 

actual shape of a flower, 

the rest are simple shapes 

of color with no detail.

In class today 

we started on the 

landscape -  using the 

transparent colors.

I will show the steps for

that demo in my next post.
