Description
These gorgeous hydrangeas are contrasted against a deep burgundy background painted in oil. The background is deep and luscious with red and purple tones. The flowers themselves are blue and white - painted in acrylic so that they stand out in brighter tones- and laid onto canvas with a palette knife. The result is art with a strong sense of texture, body, depth and dimension. With the highlights casting a gentle light across the petals and tips of the leaves, this rendering is exquisite. Rich, deep, warm. A spectacular piece. Gorgeous.
....................................................................................................................... Palette knife painting is a unique technique in that each little bit of color is literally "laid on" with the knife. The paint is thick, so many "drying" times must be built in so that each layer of color can dry before adding on another. In this piece, the darker colors were laid on first near the base of the flower, as they would be found in nature. Next, colors in the medium range were added. Lastly the light highlights were added to the tips of leaves and petals, where the sun would most likely flitter across and spread a handful of light and pixie dust.
.......................................................................................................................... This image would be beautiful displayed in home or office. With the elegance of fine art coupled with the freshness of nature, the piece is compatible with almost any style of decorating. It is available from Fine Art America in a variety of presentations, including on canvas, as a matted and framed print, unframed print (you frame when it arrives), acrylic and metal prints, poster, and cards. Fine Art America ships within three days of purchase.
Won Second Place in the FAA Beautiful Flowers May Contest.
