PEONY, 11X14, OIL

Still trying to paint flowers. This one was more difficult for me. I just could not achieve the vibrant hues I wanted!

LACECAP HYDRANGEA, 6X8 OIL

Still trying to paint flowers. I kind of like the way this one turned out.

FIRST GARDENIA, 6x8, OIL,SOLD

I don't do a lot of flowers, they frustrate me, but I am planning to try a few. I felt I had to give this one a try. I was on my way to paint with my group, wondering what I would work on, and when I stepped outside, my gardenia bush had it's first bloom of the season. I took it along, was not successful but tried again later in the day.
