Sometimes a title comes to my mind before I paint and other times, like this painting I looked at it and felt that the sunflower wants to come out of the canvas and be more than it is. When I paint I feel larger than life. How does painting make you feel?

Hi Azra. Love the blue and its reflections. And you are so right, painting does make one feel larger than life. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Karen!
DeleteHave always loved your titles and thoughts on what you paint, this one as well! Painting each piece technically makes me feel I am a beginner, emotionally I feel I spent a lovely time that defines me as a person.
ReplyDeleteThanks Padmaja, I agree, it is hard every time, I suppose if it wasn't a challenge we might not be so addicted.
DeleteWhat a lovely combination. Two of my fav colors together.
ReplyDeleteCan you believe we both did a single flower in glass, facing the same way too ,AND on the same day!!!. We must be tuned into the same art spirit.
Yours at least is finished and I am still thinking about mine.
Thanks Julie, its lovely to know that we are tuned into the same art spirit! I look forward to seeing your finished painting.
DeleteTo me it is the same, my paintings just don't seem to want to stay within the canvas ! Love the richness of this sun flower and the two colors together are super !
ReplyDeleteLove the transparency of your blue vase- and I always love sunflowers! Beautiful work!
