Petal Dance




















Petal Dance

5 in. x 7 in., acrylic on cradled board

$150 unframed (no frame necessary)

The subject of this sweet little painting was chosen by a friend and art student I'm coaching during my lunch break painting sessions at work.  She is making great strides learning to paint, and selected a free photo reference of this little female hummingbird feeding at these lovely pink bell flowers. This was a little out of my comfort zone and not my usual, but we went ahead and had some fun. I played with the subject hovering in space, creating a sense of depth with lovely juicy brush strokes of blurred background flowers and greenery.
