Thursday Friday Posy

SOLD

A posy for Thursday and Friday...or any day!

Secondary Posy

No. 250, 6"x6", acrylic on gessoboard

SOLD

When I finished painting I noticed I had used a secondary color scheme (purple, orange, green) AND this is the second posy painting in this little series...hence the name.

I'm taking a different approach to my daily paintings. I've been super picky and even though I paint every day I mostly wipe off what I paint. So, I'm going to try painting in acrylic, working very loose, and posting what I have finished at the end of my painting session. Good or bad. :) So far I feel so much happier and I'm actually looking forward to painting.

I am hoping for a more abstract instead of impressionist outcome.
