Impressionistic flowers

Hi Everyone! Thank you for checking back in with me this week! I really appreciate your support!

This summer has been very busy and spending 5 or 6 hours painting daily has been a little challenging. This floral still life was completed a couple of days ago, and many of you have remarked about the light and color reflections. I have not painted glass in a very long time and I chose to just dive in! 

Impressionistic flowers, with their long stems, sit in a glass vase with water on a table. I wanted to leave the background details obscured and added the suggestion of a window above to the left was the source of light. The light shines through the glass as the red flowers with their stems and leaves, dance in the light, casting their shadows and reflections around the room. 

I thoroughly enjoyed painting this one! More florals to come!!

Thank you for checking in with me today!
