Fuchsia Gladiolus Painting

Posted in Uncategorized

Hello again! Hope you are all well as I get my blog back on track! My latest painting is a beautiful stalk of dark fuchsia gladiolus.

Purple gladiolus

My inspiration for this painting is the tall stalks of beautiful gladiolus in a neighbor’s yard. I love watching the buds unroll into tall, full, ruffly flowers. I painted these beauties as a fully unrolled stalks in all their magnificant glory. 

I used mixes of purples, red-violet, blues, and greens with touches of yellow and cream for the highlights. The dark black-green background helps to pop the colors of the flowers and give the painting depth. 

I painted these glads on a 8 x 16 inches gallery wrapped canvas. This size canvas is very popular with my buyers. It’s the perfect size to add a little original artwork to your home or office. This original acrylic painting can be found on my etsy shop: SibStudio

Thank you for stopping by! I will be posting regularly and keep you up to date on both by art and my sewing.
