Acrylic on canvas, 14 x 11 inches |
I have been
trying to work in series of three this year.
Most of the time
that involves painting a theme three times, each picture different, yet related
in subject. This time I decided to paint the same subject 3 times.
I put a bundle of
Chrysanthemums in a bottle and started painting.
They all started out pretty much alike and only varied
toward the end of my painting section.
What I noticed that the flowers were an abundant portion of the
paintings. As I finished each one, that changed slightly. In one I actually shrunk the flowers by
pulling in more of the dark back ground color, in another I tried to balance
the volume of flowers by adding a pear in at the bottom. The original painting
I left as it was.
Painting is all
about learning with each canvas you do, this turned out to be a good learning
session, being pleased with each one. This
could be something to try and see what you can discover from it.
