I fell in love with these gladioli, especially since they were on sale... £1.69 for six stems. The reds in these flowers are so beautiful and trying to do them justice was not easy but I enjoyed the process.
Azra....i am accustomed to seeing white and yellow gladiolas...the red are a refreshing sight for me....i love the way you handled the water line and the colors came out beautifully.
Dear Azra:) I tried to do them too, only with watercolor. I failed. I couldn't see it were the beautiful flowers I had on my table:( You did a great job and they look very realistic Beautiful red color and the vase is very nice!
Azra, I love everything about this painting. I think it's one of your best! Sorry I've missed some of your posts, I've been traveling. Best wishes on your shows!
Ooh, those are luscious rich reds! And the contrast of the green wall, clear glass and shadows really makes a striking piece! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteI love glads and could see instantly what they were from the little thumbnail image on my blog. The reds blend beautifully - this is awesome Azra!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous, Azra! Love your juicy brushwork! Nicely done!
ReplyDeletePurrfect! Love those white bold highlights that make the glass shine.
ReplyDeleteI'm with everyone else! You've captured some beautiful stems!

ReplyDeletefabulous. Love the glads and I really like the way you designed this painting.
ReplyDeleteGlorious reds, nice composition. Lovely painting, Azra.
ReplyDeleteLike your advice on 'tacking' the canvas board to a larger board. I've used rolls of masking tape, but like your idea better.
