This is about a two hour effort from yesterday evening. Flowers are the hardest thing to paint (at least for me). However, I am bound and determined to teach myself how to do it. My problem is the subtle shifts in tone and color. I think this one is better than my last, yet I have a long way to go. On a different note, sorry it has been a while since my last post. I have been busy and work and most of my painting time has been dedicated to a larger painting, which is taking me longer than expected. I will post some pictures of where I am at on that larger painting in the next day or so. Thanks for stopping by. -Charlie

White rose; 5x7 oil on Gesso Board
Overall, this is not one of my favorites. I painted this last Friday (have been dragging my feet on posting it). The problem is that I got in too much of a hurry and let my paint get too thick too quick. As a result, I lost of control of the subtleties needed to paint a flower. Thanks for stopping by. -Charlie
