Vase of Purple and White Freesia (Oil Bar Painting Day 8)


Vase of Purple and White Freesia (Oil Bar Painting Day 8)

I went to Red Brick early this morning to paint for an hour. I am still working on the shape of the vase, so for part of the hour, I had the painting upside down. I also looked at it in a mirror as I made changes to check my work. Although the vase needs more attention, I am happier with it already. I also changed the position of the fallen leaf on the table. I started adding a bit more light and shadow to the blossoms and leaves, and began to add shadows to the table surface, but the day was too cloudy to do very much. Anyway, it was time to stop for the day. To be continued. . . .
