Yellow Rose

"Yellow Rose"
6" x 6"
panel

This yellow rose in my neighbor's garden was near the end of her run when I passed by, as I walked my dog recently.  Her petals rolled back like she was thankful for a sunny day under 90°.

I painted this rose twice—on the same panel. The first go-round she was too pale and lacked what I saw in her in the first place.  I let it dry, then went back in with different saturations of similar colors, not quite glazing over the original, but definitely adding to the intensity as I brushed.

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

Thank you for looking.
