Romantic Botanicals #18

The Brash Vicar's Daughter

I have this urge to blur most of the canvas with bee trails but I don't. Really there were only 2 bees on this blossom as I paint and I am not a liar.

It is a sloppy mess. My hands are covered in paint. My brushes are sticky. Goodness gracious I am glad I am wearing gloves.

I make dark and light contrasts to show the bright sunny evening. I blotch it out and glop it on. The colours are over bright. This is a brash loud work.
