The birth of a painting
A free interpretation of my mums huge plate filled with summer flowers.
Some I picked @bloemfonteinbergen and some are from our own garden.
As it was an extremely hot day when I started out I lost some and changed them for fresh ones.
I started with a bright yellow underlayer as it was so sunny .
Then I just sketched the flowers with charcoal and started painting.
The yellow background didn't speak to me so I tried a sort of olive colour which I made with lots of cadmium orange in it for warmth. It's the colour I have in my living room.
I'll look at it for a bit and will see if it feels good. What do you think?
