Surfing

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.”
― Mahatma Gandhi

I've called this painting surfing because that's how it felt to paint with a palette knife. The buttery paint glides under the knife, its an absolute joy and this quote by Mahatma Gandhi says it all.

    Love quote! Good knife work too - that kind of rose looks tricky.

    It is a boon when you can find the true sense of happiness through one of your works, yes, that means you are in perfect harmony with what you are creating, isnt that the ultimate joy? Loved it so much Azra..

    It's a truly beautiful composition where colors of flowers and vase really come together. Painting with a palette is awesome and I love the texture ! Have a nice Sunday .

    Hello Azra:) The paletteknife gives a beautiful effect. I love the colors in this painting and the beautiful rozes. Today I had exact the same rozes from my boss for being 25 (!) years at my job. B.t.w.: that background is amazing!!xxx
