Today I felt like painting roses. I did three but wiped one. Every time I think I've come up with a good approach for them, the next time I try it doesn't work. What I mean to say is - they're hard to paint!
I announced my last workshop too soon! I didn't realize they weren't taking names yet, and was just this minute informed. They say they'll start registration in mid to late February, and I have asked them to let me know the exact day so I can re-announce it. Sorry about that!!! I made an assumption and you know what they say about that ... : )

I love your rose. I have a half finished rose still sitting in the closet. I just got so frustrated with it I quit. I think I might try again, but do it monochromatic so that I don't have so much to think about. Do you think that will help? How long did it take you to paint this?
Lovely, the color and the painting. I find roses difficult too, those and peonies.
Beautiful COLORS!!!!
WOW!
Carol, your colors are always so soft and warm, it's a remedy for my eyes! Every day I'm looking forward to see a new painting of yours, wonderful job!
Thanks everyone!
Desiree- I think a value study is always helpful if you're frustrated. There are so many subtle color variations, especially in roses, so anything that simplifies it - and allows you to take it one step at a time - helps. This took about 1 1/2 hrs, but this was my second go, so really it took twice that. : )
Beautiful light and color...
I agree with you, roses are a bit difficult to paint, more than other flowers I think!!
Beautiful rose, almost smells.
Wow, I love this!
Your rose is really wonderful, love it
What a beautiful rose - there is such light in this painting! I love the way you focused on the top of the flower. Nice!
Just saw Professional Artist... Great showcase AND article. Had lost track of you after you moved and then I moved... in opposite directions. Will check to see what is open/wait-listed on East coast!
All the best.
I love the luminosity in this painting! I know how hard roses are to paint!
Just beautiful!
Magnifique travail! j'aime ces couleurs pastelles.
Bonne journée.
Cath.
Beautiful! This is really a work of art. You really have the talent.
Wow! How amazing! I guess this is what you called artistry. It looks so great. And I love how you play with the colors.
