Daniel sent me a photo of this still life to practice on. When I looked at it I thought it would be too hard, but it ended up being easier than I thought. I have such a tendency to overwork paintings and while I know I did that to this one, I really liked the way the flowers turned out. I was very loose with them and just dabbed the different values of yellow in order to get the effect of a snap dragon.
Here's the final product

I also set up a Still Life with some fresh tomatoes

Well now that I've written this post for a second time we'll see if this blogger press is going to work!
