Gladiolas


                                                                    
                                                                       12x24  oil

                           Saw these flowers and thought that i might be able to get a gestural painting out of them. 
               Very challenging to come close, but fun to move paint around. The red came through the flowers and into the cast shadows.  I'm thinking i might like to try to be more realistic but the flowers are wilting even though i've got them in water. Maybe i'll do just one blossom.
