Pansies Galore

Happy Saturday, though not very pretty here at the moment. It is a dark, dismal day with plenty of rain. Thankfully no ice or sleet as we are still above freezing.  I thought this is a good day to show my oil painting that I worked on all last week.  The blue pansies are from a photo of ones from last year and the yellow from a another photo. The yellow ones are in a  litlle blue bottle. This blue bottle is from a photo of mine with crab apples. I put the crab apples in and it looked to Christmas, with the red and greens.  So this is when I put in the yellow pansies.  I still having trouble with space, as still too big for size  of canvas but  I think I did acheive some  drama.  Pansies have little faces so I hope they smile for everyone. Thanks for viewing and I appreciate everyone's comments.
The size of this is 9" by 12" on Gallery Wrapped Canvas with assorted oil colors.

  4. I especially love the details in the blue pansies, Nora. The yellow brings a touch of buttery goodness and I find myself wanting to see more of that blue bottle! LOL I think this is a fine and quite pretty painting and the dark backdrop is perfect!
