| "Riot of Zinnias"' 24" x 24" Oil on wrapped canvas |
Late last summer when the flowers were at their most vibrant, and had actually swelled to overabundance, I photographed this "Riot of Zinnias."
I splashed and dashed on color, yet it didn't look enough like summer. So I took my Colour Shaper thingie and drew over some of the petals. The added texture makes it riotous!
Thanks for looking.

Carol, each summer I plan a giant patch of zinnias by my mailbox. Mostly because even I can grow them, but they produce such an explosion of color all summer long - it's like fireworks. Love your painting.
ReplyDeleteThanks Vic! They do throw caution to the wind, don't they? I'll have to stop by to photograph your "explosion" when they come into season.
