30 x 30 inches oil on 1 1/2 inch wrapped canvas $600.00
This is a definite departure from my usual canvas size. I took this photo of a beautiful hanging basket on my deck, the neighbours house was included in the photo, I really liked the composition of the photo so decided to paint it. It is tricky painting on such a large surface but eventually you just let loose. I really enjoyed experimenting with colour and detail on this painting.
I am so enjoying using gesso to cover large paintings that I was never too fond of, even better is re-using them to play with colour on such a large scale, such a departure from what I usually paint. It is always good to try something new...gets those creative juices flowing even more.
