This one was more difficult to paint than it maybe looks. Getting the shadow to line up just right with the background stripes ... and then the rose on top of that ... yikes. But I am really pleased with how it turned out ... especially the glass (it's simple but you can tell what it is!). I painted several more small roses today as I had the whole day to paint and didn't feel like doing a large one. It's a good thing too because by the end of today the roses were done for. I'll be posting them going forward - they show how I experimented with techniques in rose painting. It was really fun!
