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…
