Pretty Posy

Oil on Canvas Board 
35 x 45 coms 

This was started  more than a month back and has seen many a painting day!After it was started came exams, after exams came outings and finally, after all that this was completed. I'm actually not sure if it is, but I have declared it over, as I need the easel to get on with my painting work and can't have this pretty posy staring at me.

The downside is that the whole painting area is sticky with oil paints, there are paints , half dried on the easel, there are brushes, dipped in turpentine and  this will require at least an hour of my scraping and cleaning exercise!!!!

But all said and done, this is a good piece of art, inspired by my 'Anthesis'. I am glad she did her own thing here and I think the drawing is superb!
