An Add-on to my previous post
I just discovered that I have not included "Moonlit Bluebonnets" in any previous post, so here it is. I might get the hang of this one of these days!
Texas Wildflowers
I have been wanting to paint our Texas wildflowers for quite some time, but wasn't sure how I wanted to approach the subject. They are definitely beautiful when you view them in batches out in a field, and the colors can be really breathtaking when they are at their fullest. I am not a plain air nor landscape painter, plus, I thought I would like to show them up close and personal. We really don't get to see that view point when we are driving down the road. Neither am I a botanical artist--so, what to do?! My first idea was "Moonlit Bluebonnets", which I have posted earlier. My latest idea is the following pics I am posting today. They are 6" diameter, framed 8" square. I am trying to keep them simple and small. Not sure if this is the route I want to take, but will do a few more, to see. I think they are small enough people can make a collection of them, I can do prints, or note cards. They are also done in different media. The pastel one is my favorite, so far. Enjoy!!
