Bowl With Orchid -SOLD

oil 12x9 inches magnify/purchase This is the second study from the Qiang Huang workshop. The color in this piece is much nicer in person. Below is my set up and my sketch, or placement stage as Qiang calls it.

Tomorrow I'm off for a few days of camping/painting at the beach. I'll post again on Friday.

First Orchid SOLD

oil on canvas panel 6x6 inches

Yesterday I spend nearly all my painting time trying to iron out image upload problems on the computer. UGH! If you see weird stuff on my blog, it's because I'm still learning how to do this. I had started this little painting the day before, and found time in the evening to finish it. After two years of waiting, watering and fertilizing this little kitchen orchid managed to bloom. Of course, I must document the event in paint! I hope you like it.
