Daisy Field

16" x 20"

Acrylic

Happy Monday to all!

As promised, I completed "Daisy Field" this weekend. I am thinking about doing a smaller "detail" painting of these cheerful flowers, using thick acrylic paint.

It has been a challenge, though, to keep the yellow centers off my boxer's nose. Lucy loves to sniff flowers...buttercups are the worst...and daisies are no exception. And each time she sniffs flowers, a gigantic "projectile" sneeze follows. Why doesn't she ever learn?

Back to the painting: I enjoyed the loose style and contrasting colors. I may try this again, using a palette knife instead of brushes. This would keep the color fresh and the painting really loose. H'mm...maybe tomorrow...
