One more rose....
Just added one rose painted on an ACEO. I am currently working on a larger rose painting, too. Seems to be that time of year for roses! Funny how this larger painting - at 6 x 6 inches suddenly seems so big! I've gotten so used to working small.

Valentines Day and candy.....go together, right?
Kind of like how I like to paint flowers in order to make them last, why not paint candy in order to enjoy it without the calories?! Here is a classic Valentine candy:

What Remains - SOLD
I had forgotten how much I enjoy painting roses.
This rose is a little past its prime and had a character all its own. I wanted to make the lighting a little more dramatic and emphasize the folds and waves of the wilting petals. I think that even a wilting rose is beautiful - we don't all stay young and fresh forever!
This is on a 6 x 4 canvas - seems kinda large compared to what I have been working with lately! I like this size, and may have to get more canvas since I tend to like to paint more flowers when spring approaches.
