Siblings

"Siblings" 16" x 20" Oil on wrapped canvas

The day was cooler than we had grown accustomed to. The sun shone, but was dotted with intermittent clouds. Two blooms clung to one another like siblings about to be tucked into separate beds. 

I hadn't considered painting these two together, but they seemed to fit in my composition, so here it is. I used my handmade Rosemary & Co. brushes instead of sponges to brush on the color. It was thrilling to do it in the traditionally, but I still glazed on the luminous colors with my sponge.  And just you wait to see what new tool I've incorporated into creating my new series!

This painting is listed with, and for sale through a Daily Paintworks Auction.
