Fleurs de l'Amour
12" X 9"
oil on 3" gesso board
This painting took awhile! To get the three dimensional qualities and reflective light right, there are about 20 glazes on some areas of the painting!
It's been a hectic day, and Shelley has youth activities at church this afternoon. I'll visit your Happy List posts tonight once we get home! :D (I can't wait!)
Until next time...
Blessings!

ReplyDeleteI gasped out loud when I saw your gorgeous painting. I was painting tonight and whenever I've been painting it sure gives me a new appreciation for great art, which yours truly is. You have such skill in creating depth in the petals and doing the glass vase and the composition. Love it all.
ReplyDeleteRicki, you are very talented! I am in awe of how an artist creates something this exceptional.
ReplyDeleteRicki Jill, This is absolutely gorgeous. I can almost smell the flowers form her. xo Laura
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. I wish you would have prints made of this so I could buy one. The blue is absolutely perfection and the flowers? Please think about it!
ReplyDeleteOh my GOODNESS Ricki... this is beautiful!! You have an amazing talent... and I'm with Ann, I would so buy a print of this!
ReplyDeleteOh lovely! At first glance, I thought it was a photograph.
ReplyDeleteNow I'm not sure about your attitude, to my saying that. The last thing you may want, is for your lovely painting, to be taken for a photo. If I apologize, ahead of time. :-)
Regardless, it is a beautiful, beautiful painting!
