SOLD
This is the first oil I've done in a number of years and I have to say that it was a lot of fun, but a bit frustrating too. I have been so used to painting with watercolor or encaustic - both of which dry very fast - that it took a bit of fiddling to get these oils to do what I wanted. Still it was good to smell the linseed oil and mineral spirits in the studio again.
The reference photo for this was taken on April 4. The historic terraces at Duke Gardens are just covered with tulips that time of year. So cheerful. Hope it warms your cool day.
