"IRIS" IN BLUE


Good Day everyone!!  Another beautiful day here, Sun shining,slight breeze, will be in the mid 80's later. What more can you ask for.  I'm adding another painting I finished for another monthly Challenge on WetCanvas..  This month the host wanted any kind of  Blue flowers.  This is a beautiful bearded Iris, that I loved to grow when I had a backyard.  Every year this particular plant would dazzle me with this display of these beautiful blooms.  The blooms were not suppose to be so blue, but this one liked to show her display on her own, and every year her blooms reigned over the others. So in tribute to that lovely lady who danced with the wind. I painted one of her girls.........this is one of my "Petite Pearls" Series showcasing smaller paintings. Hope you enjoy!!!
Painted with Acrylics on Gallery Canvas, 8x10 inches

This is very beautiful, I just got into a Iris obsession sparked by Van Gogh. I like your use of color. Good work!

Thank you Andrew. Though you are mistaken if you think this is a photo imprinted on canvas. This is my painting I did of an Iris painted on canvas done with acrylic paints, all my work. I'm a fine art artist, not an craft person, as your link to canvas artwork prints indicates. I find that insulting.
