Cornflowers
I chose to go back to this painting today for the reason I spoke of in my blog. I have a great love of flowers, how I wish I could paint them like so many of you whom I consider great blogging friends can. I just cannot bring myself to slow down enough to capture them like you all seem to do.
Whenever I get a paintbrush in my hand, life seems to speed up. So as much as I would like to I tend to stay away from painting flowers. That being said my home will no doubt be full of flowers this weekend as we celebrate 40 years of marriage. Seemed appropriate to put some flowers on here also. My apologies.
Another reason I have put them on here today is my wonderful memories of this week. The Impressionist exhibition I attended on gardens and flowers.
Maybe I will just have one more try at some flowers, but do not hold your breath.
So the point of this blog today.
Thanks to all of you whose blogs I read who paint marvellous floral art. I do not tell you often enough how much I enjoy them.
Apologies if on both my blogs today I sound a bit self indulgent but please make allowances for me.
