DAY 9 - Painting 30 Paintings in 30 Days (Milva)

"Among the Milva Roses"
8" x 8"
oil on Raymar canvasboard

Again, a photo from my florist daughter helped me 
get today's painting going.

Other flowers here are delphinium, thistle (my new fave
when floral painting), silver dollar eucalyptus and white ginestra.
I am getting a lesson in flower ID, at the same time I am painting.

The day got late when I needed to 'final photo' this,
the north light was gone, which I really rely on.
So I bumped up the brightness on this one a little in Photoshop,

Your and my monitors may be a bit different, too.

This one is available, I never intended to market these until
the 30 days were done, but it's happening anyway.

Please email me if interested.
Drying time needed.
