Petunia study II 2010

Dear Everyone:

This is the first in my series
of folk art paintings of the
unusual petunia I detailed
in the previous blog posting.

I had never seen the colour
combination of lime green and
fuchsia of these flowers before.

The painting insisted
that I use greens for the
background.

The image is rather stylized
which is typical of my work.


Enjoy.

Helen.

Dear Everyone:


Spotted this striking type of
petunia at a private home.
Returned the following day to
photograph it with the permission
of the owner.


May do some paintings of
these flowers, as well.
The colour combination,
lime green and fuchsia, is so unusual


Helen.
