It’s National Pear Day!
I love pears. They’re great fresh, in tarts, and I make a lovely, delicate sorbet from them too. But I love their various shapes, the femininity of them, a natural ode to the Venus of Willendorf. Coincidence? 😊

More Poppies are the official flower of August. I play w/contrast a lot. This contrasts 2 adjacent colors, a cool red & a warm orange, mass of an area of color to blank paper, opposites on the color wheel (R & G), & leggy stems to full, rounded petals. The buds are fun.

I made this one about a year ago. I’d been doing some California poppies, $ felt a need for more color, & just about the flower blossoms. So I went to a true north subject & indulged in the colors, & the shapes of the petals. Simple & focused.

Cherry Blossoms. This was my first foray into painting cherry blossoms. After getting the blossoms in mostly, and the branches drawn in, I decided that the celadon green to set them off.

Part 5, very close to finished. All the petals are in, and the foliage has been included. Now it’s time to take a step back, and see what it needs re color values & details to finish it up.

Part 4, with most of the petals painted in. I knew at this point I was going to go back in with second layers to adjust some parts, bring up the values. Also started thinking about the leaves I was going start adding in too.

Part 3, adding more petals. I’m working on doing this piece with a single layer of paint, ie doing each part with one application of paint, not using multiple layers.

Part 2, as more petals are painted. Having fun doing color transitions in each one, while painting petals that don’t touch to keep the color from oozing petal to petal. Multiple blossoms are simultaneously created this way.

It’s tulip season again. I did this piece about a year ago, continuing an enjoyment of painting tulips since I started using watercolors. Watch this space as I post the progress of it.
