This scene is a place I'd love to visit, but sadly haven't been there. I've spent so much time dreaming of lavender fields while gardening. I only have a few little lavender plants, and they smell delightful. I can't imagine how lovely and aromatic standing in a field of lavender must be! I added a touch of whimsy (and bravery) but letting my magenta underpainting boldly leak through different elements of the background and foreground. It's been fun doing more playful brushstrokes!
This collection was nice because it challenged me with both the utilization of texture and color theory. I'm so glad I pushed myself beyond what I thought I was capable of, because I learned so much from these six paintings. Check out the other paintings here.
Size: 18”x24” on a 1.5” deep cradled canvas. Sides of the canvas are painted a solid color to match the painting (periwinkle).
Materials: Oil on canvas.
Hand-signed on the back. I will sign it on the front at the buyer's request. (this is a time of transition, and I'm slowly starting to sign more stuff on the front, and will be in the future).
