The Remains of the Flowers

The Remains of the Flowers - 6 x 6 Oil on Gesso Board
Sold

These are what's left of a bouquet of flowers from last week, and so I thought I'd better get at least one painting out of them before they are all done being pretty :)  Used another piece of gesso board for this one, but coated it with oil-tinted Galkyd medium and let it dry for a few days.  It's another whole animal even from plain gesso board.  It's almost like painting on glass--no paint gets absorbed.  I like trying new things, but I think I'll go back to the canvas panels for a while.
