My latest painting, Yellow Dandelions.
Completed in three weeks.. I may go back into it and play around with the paint a little bit more but this is a good stopping point.
Due to popular demand I will again explain my process a little with some in progress photos 😀
After stapling the large canvas to the wall I painted a couple layers of Gesso on.
Starting with a layer of bright yellow…

After much more color, splashing around, throwing paint on the wall and letting it drip unto the ground, this is the finished result of the largest yellow dandilions youll see on canvas.

Next up I need to pull it off the wall and make this one into a giant scroll! 😀 Inspired by a chinese scroll in my room, I think these two flowers would look eligant displayed in this manner. Ive never turned canvas into a scroll but I can sew and I am excited, so wish me luck!
