Blue Iris

Exercise Quick Study

Hi everyone!

Not sure if you've been visiting my other blog, lately. I took a lot of pictures this spring from around my garden. The gardens are what I am naturally drawn to, every spring and I tend to take a lot of pictures/

This morning, I was trying to think of a quick painting subject I could do. (I trying to paint a little, every day to get back into "shape".) Then I remembered all the photos I took the past couple months and found this one. Here's the reference photo I took this past Spring.

Here's the painting...

I think I REALLY need practice; especially simplifying backgrounds a bit more.

If you want to read more about this painting and other things, visit my other Blog for lots of fun things.
