Orange Ranunculus and Daisies 16

Hi there! I hope you are having a great week! Today I have a 24" x 24" painting to share with you that I was inspired by Nancy Medina's Orange Ranunculus and Daisies video tutorial and a lot of encouragement from my sweet husband. All this painting takes a lot of practice but my dear husband's patience is wearing thin because I keep telling him "I'm just practicing" but he's ready to see some art work hung around the house ;) LOL  ***Please keep in mind, this style of painting is impressionistic not realistic***

Here's my first attempt. I had painted the transparent underpainting and had worked on the vase which was quite large and lopsided. 

With a little effort and a lot of turpenoid, I removed the entire painting and was left with the semi stained canvas shown below:

I'm linking my painting to the current Paint Party Friday post:

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Be Sweet ;)
