Every year since I moved to Texas I do a bluebonnet painting for my Texas sister's birthday. Most of those paintings are really terrible, but they are steadily improving. I find flowers so hard, for all the same reasons as everyone else: they are so alive and after you paint them they are so not. And all the greats have painted them so there is a heavy historical burden. Even with all that, sometimes you have to do it anyway.I take my hat off to you, Jane Freilicher.
Bluebonnets vous nous faites tourner la tête!
ReplyDeleteJ'aime vos deux bouquets de bleuets mais s'il me fallait choisir, ce dernier m'attire davantage est-ce que le coquelicot ne prenait pas toute la présence ? Amitiés
