Baptism Roses

I started out trying to paint a floral in the style of Daniel Keys. He paints lush still lifes alla prima in a very loose style while giving the appearance of detail. A great example is Andri's paintings that he posted recently. My flowers are definitely looser. Oh well, I will try again. Love to hear your comments. 10 x 20 acrylic

Comment by Ningning Li on September 17, 2013 at 15:13: Sharon, you are absolutely right.

Comment by Sharon Repple on September 17, 2013 at 14:33: Thanks Pandalana and Ningning, I don't paint many still life paintings but plan to do more in the future. I do enjoy painting close up subjects such as the lemonade which might be called a still life. I love to paint the intricate details of God's creations or a beautiful landscape or majestic clouds, the subjects for our paintings are endless.

Comment by Pandalana Williams on September 17, 2013 at 12:50: Very beautifully done!

Comment by Ningning Li on September 17, 2013 at 11:07: I always admire people whom can paint flowers. It is very beautiful!

Comment by Þorgrímur Andri Einarsson on September 16, 2013 at 22:29: This is a lovely painting Sharon. I like the positioning of the flower lying on the table. It feels like they are moving towards the canvas. I agree with Roena about the shadow under those flowers, it would probably give that area more depth.

Comment by Carol Ann Rogers on September 16, 2013 at 14:57: This is a lovely painting Sharon, and a very sweet story behind them. I really like the softness of the roses, and the looseness. Great colors too.
