White Hydrangeas, Part Deux



The last white hydrangea painting went well, i.e. good value and color choices at first pass without need for reworking.   I thought I would try for a repeat.  In the last blog post, I mistakenly called the painting a paining which is what the above turned out to be.  Everything needed reworking; the greenish hydrangea blossoms changed color intensity/values multiple times.  You build on what you learn but progress can be slow!

Blue Heron



Some friends just purchased a beach house called (guess here);  answer: The Blue Heron Beach House! It got me thinking about something other than still lifes.  I am going to ask if there is room for this in their new digs. (And does anyone use the expression digs anymore?)

Tulips


This was the same bunch of tulips used for the last painting after they had begun to open.   After the painting, they went back into the fridge and weeks later still look great.  They make me smile when I reach in there for milk!
