Hydrangeas - SOLD

Hydrangeas
Oil on Gessoed Masonite
14" x 16"
Sold.
When they say not to paint in direct and brilliant sunlight, it's advice to be heeded. I painted this one in the full sun, it's a gorgeous bush, with blues, pinks and lavenders all in the same bush. The neighbor lady was tickled that I was painting in front of her place, she kept coming out to check on progress. The colors, however, were way too bright in all that sunshine. So today I sat down and finished it up, softened the colors, and am pleased with it, all in all. Thanks for looking.
