Fearless Friday, Red Roses Abstract Acrylic
The painting below,
“Bloom in a Blue Vase”
is one of my favorites
It was painted in an abstract style from a simple jar of flowers
I decided to crop the photo of the blue jar arrangement
and do another painting
in a similar abstract style
I used a black underpainted canvas and began with the background
Soft turquoise and white
I wanted the strokes to be fast, loose, abstract and bold
Loading your brush with a lot of paint for the bloom strokes,
will add interest with dimension and texture
A couple of strokes for the stems and a fallen petal
Touches of blue
Touches of yellow and white and color in the foreground to finish
Some of these colors were applied with a palette knife for texture
This painting was done in less than an hour total
{I did let the background dry before I started on the jar and flowers}
It was super fun not sweating the details
and just fearlessly painting!
Loosen up and Be Fearless!

Ever since I stopped getting your email alerts, I miss so much. Not sure why — it says I am following. I’m not even always seeing them on bloglovin. I’ll try to backtrack to catch up but this is lovely.
