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!

Lonesome Blossom- Acrylic on paper

A copy from the snap of a Hibiscus flower done on postcard size paper. The pink flower is offset by a golden background for "party" effects. This was done as a part of decor to adorn the walls of a room, to lend an air of jazz for a party. Hence the golden background. The snap is really not even 50% representative of the real thing.
