Now then, most of you know I don't like painting flowers, cos I battle like mad with them. But just lately I have had a Eureka moment!!! Yep, been pleased with my blooming battles, get it blooms.
Ha ha.

| Well this was going awful, painting away at Churchtown Art Club, that I go to (check out their site on facebook) so took it home and ran it under the tap, Then put in a wet in wet background and scrunched on some cling film. Added a few darks and hey presto, a miracle, a decent painting. So never give up (which is what I would normally have done) I have called it Dancing Fuschias. |
No idea what this flower is, it's like a Rudebekia. Can't spell it. Saw someone had painted yellow flowers on facebook, and I thought what a cheerful colour, saw masses of these in a magazine so had a bash. They cheered me up just painting them.
A battle and a half!!!! Brusho Thistle. I threw everything at this and I considered it a failure, until I posted it on facebook. Well what was going on? Either they were all being kind or it actually isn't as bad as I thought.
Now all I ask is you look around at the beautiful flowers around you and think how wonderful nature is. A miracle around every corner.
