Hydrangeas, Fall Transition

 

Hydrangeas in the Fall, 2021, Oil on Panel, 18"x36"

I love painting flowers.  I love the intricate detail of each petal; its color, texture, form.  I also love the way the flowers sit in their surroundings submerged in verdant greens.  This is a large painting which will occupy my time, but provide a challenge that I am in need of.  Hydrangea blooms, if left on the bush, toward fall will turn pink and green as they dry.  Looking at this composition I see a need for more activity to the left.
