“Still life with flowers and a vase”
Flowers, with their varieties of shapes, colours and scents are some of the most beautiful things. Many artists painted flowers for centuries, some of them even became obsessed with painting this subject. A few examples of painters of flowers would include Monet, Van Gogh, or Romanian painter Luchian and many, many others.
Although I was always fascinated by flowers I only painted a handful of still lifes with them.
This is why I have decided to paint more flowers.
My painting for this week was inspired by a bunch of freesia like little flowers in a small clay vase we have bought recently.
I was only trying to capture the feeling of the flowers and the vase, rather than a realistic image.
So, here it is instalmentno 6 of my weekly target.
