Valentine Rose

This is my contribution to the weekly Daily Paintworks Challenge. This is a great exercise not only in the painting itself, but painting subjects you would not normally tackle. I don't paint that many flowers, but this was fun.

Daily Painters Challenge

This is a challenge which consisted of 8 - 10 minute paintings of some object (I chose an orange.) This is a very useful way for an artist to get to the basic shapes and tonal values of a subject.
You can see more of these challenges at  Daily Paintworks.

Maple Leaf 2010

This is the colourful season in southern Ontario. Various leaves make wonderful little still lifes. I see these as I walk dogs in fields, and I can't resist bringing them home. Imagine 6 dogs on leashes and a handful of delicate leaves!

Compliments

Haven't done much in the way of still life, but these orange beauties inspired me. A theme, maybe...?
