This morning I got up and took one of the orchid arrangements from the house to the front lanai. The lanai is my studio while I am here. Thanks Mom and Dad! Yes, I know I have to clean it off for company tomorrow.
I painted the Cattleya orchid from life. After becoming frustrated, I simplified the shapes, colors and values.
This is really nice. Lovely colors and shapes!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tam! Am enjoying your posts!
DeleteI LOVE this one!!! Really nice, Kaethe.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I should have called it "Barbera Saletri Orchid"! I may have been influenced by your "Trees Without Leaves" series.
DeleteSO GREAT and so UNIQUE!
ReplyDeleteLOVIN the colors, too = )
Thank you Sue! I think of you as a color combo expert!
DeleteIt's simply gorgeous, Kaethe!
