SOLDI've been meaning to paint this bottle for a while, since it was lying around the house. The trouble was, I had restricted myself to the one format for all my daily studies. This was really to make things easier for framing or sending to buyers. I went out to the garage and found a piece of particle board and coated it with gesso, and voilà!
I had to work quickly on this one as this flower seemed to start wilting as soon as I picked it in the front garden. Probably a good thing - give myself a time limit and try to express the subject as simply as possible. Anyway, I did the minimum of blending in this one, and I let some of the burnt umber ground show through...
By the way, if you know what this flower is, do let me know!
