ORIGINAL | "Flourish" 24 x 24" acrylic on gallery canvas
over the past few months i have been immersing myself in florals. it is no secret that i LOVE painting flowers, but i have really been honing my style and studying my personal process in order to develop an online workshop i plan to release in early 2016.
my purpose is not to teach you how to paint flowers, but to share with you in-depth how i interpret what i see and how i take it from interpretation to process to application to finished canvas.
whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced this will be a workshop that offers more than just pretty colors and textures (although that is flippin' awesome) but a more intimate experience about the hows, whys, and wheres of my process.
so i thought i would share with you today a collective look at what the past few months study has produced.

Hi Donna, I love your interpretation. I am struggling to let go of the "perfect photo replication" style that I am doing. So I will be eager to enrol for this video. Sarah
