"Sisters", 9x12"


This painting made me think of sisters-- all living on the same branch, but evolving into unique personalities with different outlooks.

My challenge on this one was to use a palette knife on top of a transparent wash.  I had to stop myself before I went in and developed it too far.  I wanted it to say "roses" without overstating things.

    OMG! Outstanding! Wonderful in every way! I feel them coming out of the canvas. I also love the sister analogy. Love it!

      Thank you Cathy-- I don't have any sisters myself, but I do observe them closely :) I'm loving your figurative work-- looking forward to more!

      Thanks Bob-- not sure I can do a series of this motif-- painting roses is exhausting :)

    These roses are gorgeous... so sensuous! I can't believe you achieved this with a palette knife. Also, I love your analogy of the three sisters.
