Ok, lightening storms, icy rains and high wind warnings, I am dedicated to plein-air but I guess I have limits so I am in my studio today painting the yellow roses that I was given for Mother's day. The small roses are a living plant that I will plant in the yard.
The dark leaves anchor the yellow roses floating above them. I am cutting in a thick pale purplish white background. I am building a contrast of stroke sizes - large brush for the background to give one's eye a break from the short stroked jumbly leave.
