30 PAINTINGS IN 30 DAYS -- DAY 24

A distinctive Posted Palette was provided by my former student and spectacular singer, Beth.  There are only four colors  -- Violet, Red Violet, Olive Green and Dark Green ( I added white) used to create the dramatic lights and darks of Almost Open.  Working so intimately with one particular flower has taught me that, like humans, each bloom is distinctive and has a unique personality.  Some are shy, , some flamboyant, some reclusive, some demanding to be noticed.  As artists, we can choose to make our paintings convey the emotions of our subjects and/or our own emotions by the way we handle our paint.  Our brushstrokes can be smooth or rough, our paint delicately light or boldly contrasting, our colors quiet or intense.  Although we may not be powerful people in the grand scheme, in our own little world we have unlimited options.  For me, this is a very liberating feeling.
