"Tulip tumble"

Pink tulips to give us cool spring thoughts in this summer heat wave!  The leaves and stalks were created by painting the negative space...so instead of painting the actual object, I paint the area around it.  Layering and glazing and putting in these little triangles of dark darks as my last touches.

  2. It takes so much patience and creativity to represent the tulip foliage this way instead of "duplicating" it. It is quite beautiful.
