Like the previous painting, this one was a product of my imagination. I was focused on pattern and tone but after setting up the overall composition, this was a rare (for me) case of the painting telling me what it needed. A wonderfully joyful process!
Tom wrote a haiku to accompany this one. As usual, it feels just right for the piece!
bold rising colours
complex swift simplicities
evoke the rose

I think you’ll hear what the painting is telling you with increasing frequency and clarity now!
Thank you! I sure hope so! 😃
The white strokes on the flowers give the entire image a lot of volume and texture. I love it!
Thank you Max! 😊
