Irises and A Foxglove

$650.00

This painting was inspired by a photo taken in my garden several years ago. I was ready to ā€œpaint looseā€ again, in this one, and so I got out my palette knives. The day I captured the picture, the Dutch Irises were in bloom and a single Foxglove decided to show up. The background shrubs add to the drama. Just look at the hues of browns, burgundy and pinks that rendered the form of a Loropetalum back there! And the horizon line helps you know thereā€™s even more to the garden beyond our view. This may be one of my favorite paintings Iā€™ve completed.

  • Size (h & w): 20 x 16 in

  • Medium: Oil On Canvas
