Pansy

Along with still life I thought I'd try painting a few flowers. This pansy is from a photo I took last fall at a garden center. And here it is, time for flowers again. I used to paint flowers quite a lot and I enjoy them as subject matter for paintings. So I am looking forward to seeing what flowers I may find for inspiration this season.

Another lovely painting and I like the close up flower as part of your project. Looking forward to more flowers.
Wow! This one jumped from the page to strike me, it's so powerful! So beautiful! Fantastic job with the light and the tridimensional effect.
Also love the pears, they're gorgeous. And the spring fever one. Your spring colors are stunning!
very pretty :D thought it was a photo at first
The petals look very velvety - just like the real thing. I really like the dark background and the yellow petals around it. Another wonderful piece of work! nancy
It just jumps out and I'd say this is photorealistically excellent! =)
I really like the colors. It's nowhere near your usual water and green grass and sky kind of stuff, it's different and it's very nice!
Thanks for your comment on my Oni drawing Ann ^^
so well done you want to say hello to that little face and expect an answer.
Wow, beautiful painting...the blending of colors are very nice.
I thought this was a photo, Ann. A lovely crop and gorgeous painting all around!
These colors are so beautiful! From reading the other comments I think all of our eyes are starved for some color!!!
It's stunning, Ann! I really like the composition of this painting. Pansies are always so cheerful and resiliant, aren't they?
ann,
the beautiful texture of flower is beautifully captured...
congratulations...
This is stunning...you definitely do flowers well!! I love the close-up, the colors are vibrant, your blending is excellent! Great picture! Reminds me a little of Georgia O'Keefe!
The folds and fringes of the flower are remarkable. Lovely painting!
Awesome details and color. You really do flowers wonderfully.
I love the macro view on this flower, and the rich colors you used.
Thank you all so much for your kind comments!
