Max's Roses

My neighbor has five varieties of roses blooming now. (He is from Ukraine, and his property looks like a forest!) Last week I took photos of all of his roses, and painted this 8 x 6 from one the photos I took. I didn't take this month's workshop, just tried painting them.

Struggling with another try at palette knife painting, then thinking about doing another rose painting for a Let's Paint New Mexico challenge. Looking so forward to seeing the paintings you will be doing now that you are getting back into it !

Comment by Marcia Hodges on April 22, 2016 at 13:41: Candi - this is lovely. Your values are wonderful and the colors you chose are subtle and very effective in this piece. Great work. This should be entered into the workshop for this month.

Comment by Jessica Futerman on April 22, 2016 at 1:46: Candi, this is wonderful! I really like the beautiful, subtle colour variations in the rose petals & the bits of blue sky between the leaves! Lovely contrasts & the values are just right!
