Variety - Monthly Artist Challenge Painting
 |
| Watercolor 8" x 8" |
The topic this month was "Variety", which was very similar to a topic we had painted before but also a topic that you could paint in many different ways,
This time I chose to paint some of the flowers that had bloomed in my garden throughout the year. Last time I painted a selection of birds.
To give myself a bit more of a challenge , this time I didn't sketch it out in pencil first ,just painted one flower and then added flowers until there was no more room.
Painting and Flowers
If you are a painter/artist you will have at sometime tried to capture the beauty of a flower and it is one of the most difficult things to do I find.
This is a painting I did soon after we moved into this house. During the winter I saw the first signs that bulbs would be coming up in the yard. So I painted what I hoped they would be.
I was so happy when they bloomed, they were lovely yellow daffodills, one of my favorite flowers.
The leaves are already green in my yard this year and I wait for the lovely yellow flowers to appear.
