Yet another Floral Portrait!
This time though, the color palette is very intense.
Nature is so AMAZING! It’s a pleasure to see these wonders of nature come alive under my fingers

I painted this one from a picture posted in the Reference Library of WC (Wetcanvas.com).
It was simply irresistable! Loved the play of light and shade.

Trinity – Water Lilies Re-visited

This is one of my favourite subjects.Painted a closeup of the same, sometime last year. This time I just wanted to re-visit the ‘pond” painting. The leaves are very loosely done, with bold strokes of greens and yellows. The same technique follows on in the stems, rather more loose so to speak. As always, it was a fun painting! Enjoyed every moment…
