Irises 2


“Irises 2” is part of the Series “The Flowers”...

Semi-Abstract Watercolour on textured Arches Paper….then masked before paint was poured on wet paper, and textured again till the effect I wanted was achieved…

You come in such glorious colors,
In hues, the rainbow surpass;
The chart of color portrays you,
In petal, or veins, of your class.
...excerpt…E Edwards..

All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, AW Welcome Center, Bits and Pieces , Happy Haven, Latin-Caribbean Art, Live, Love, Dream, Safe Haven, The Patchwork , Vibrant and Vivid Color and Yellow Fever

    Thank you Alison…the idea was to give an abstract impression of the Irises with some movement around them, hence the texture…

    I particularly like the upward sweeping motion you place in the painting, it adds a certain drama to the work.

    Thanks so much Jim…I am trying to keep up with the goal I set myself which is to paint every day….since I joined here I have continued to paint right into summer [a first for me]....I thought it would be too hard, but its been raining a lot and that has been making it easier to stay in the studio…
