Wildflowers

A vivid painting depicts a cluster of wildflowers in blue and yellow against a dark, purple background. The blue flowers feature five petals each with a central red dot, while the yellow flowers have blurred edges, creating a soft, ethereal effect.

I lost another long post (hint to WordPress, fix your app), so I will again give the short version.

I’ve been doodling. Over the last few days I’ve been trying to replicate the way the eye will focus on one-element, while others are blurred. I’m using flowers for this experiment.

For the out of focus elements, I used spray paint and simple forms. The foreground elements are done using acrylic paint. To achieve light in the background, I used metallic paint mixed in with the darker colors.

Like it? Make me an offer. Note: The canvas is damaged on the side. I’ve repaired it with Gorilla Glue and paint. If framed, no one but us will ever know it’s there. I cut the canvas trying to remove it from my table as it was painted onto the surface.
