ad trouble titling this small gem. "Rosy Glow"? "Rose Brilliant"? "Rose Shadow Play"? In the end, I settled with "Summer Roses" although I took the reference photo for the painting in early fall. Do you know why? The painting just feels hot! The sun casts colorful shadows on the petals; the background is shrouded in cool darks, from which a few sunlit leaves emerge. How would you title the painting instead?
Last Roses of Summer
ReplyDeleteI too love those deep rose tones. The touch of yellow is wonderful. I see you are painting more flowers now. Did you need a little break from the dog portraits?
ReplyDeleteThat is a good suggestion, Joyfulartist. Thanks! Yes, I decided to do a series of small florals. They are not as exacting as pet portraits. Lol. Thanks, Carol!
