Guess I'm continuing with the Christmas balls. They so went with the flower with a nice contrast of the green cup in the middle. At first after painting and squinting to see it, the colors and shapes, to me, looked a bit like barkcloth. I did use a new surface, which is the Ampersand with the gessoed surface. But now I'm excited about trying the Ampersand with the clay finish....even smoother than the previous. I love when the paint just slips and slides around on the surface in the beginning stages of a painting.
This one is called, "Bud, I think Junior Fell Out" oil on a canvas panel. This is the first time I have painted this blue pot. It's really large, so it held (sorta) the big sunflower blossoms. So I had to use big brushes with the large scale of things and didn't want to get hung up in the little details.

Les deux peintures que j'admire sont intéressantes... J'aime l'harmonie des couleurs... Je trouve ravissante la seconde peinture avec le pot bleu... Il y a un très beau contraste de nuances de couleurs...
Gros bisous
If we lived close by each other I would love nothing better than to take painting lesson from you. I really like both of these paintings! I still keep mine on my mantle with many of my favorite pretty's to admire....
