Cherry Blossoms Painting

Posted in Art Work

What a cold, snowy winter this has been! It is a great time to paint the springtime I am waiting for.  One of the signs that winter is over and spring is here is the blooming of the cherry trees.  And that is what I painted last week!

Cherry Blossoms

Azure blue background is the color of the sky on a beautiful sunny spring day. I painted the  branches in full bloom with lots of whites, pinks, purples, and even a touch of green and sienna brown. Hope looking at the painting brings warm thoughts of spring to you too.

Daffodil Drawing, Part 3

Finished daffodil drawing

I am happy with how it turned out. I wanted to capture the simple beauty of daffodils in black and white.  I kept the drawing to a roughly 5 x 7 space as I worked. After playing with different size matting and color, I opted for a slightly larger matting to focus the eye on the drawing. I also thought that the white matting helped to bring out better contrast between the light and dark of the drawing.
