The cycle of life

Comments

Flowers certainly are challenging Romila, especially roses I think! But you’ve done well here and I like the idea of the life cycle.

I love the contrast with the dark trees behind , it makes the roses stand out.

Lovely roses Romila. Such a special flower and you have created a lovely image with that very rich background allowing the roses to really shine.

Nice job Romila and roses are very challenging.

A painting that tells a story, Romila. Certainly not easy to paint but you did it successfully.

Alla prima on 8x10 oil from a photograph of the garden . Intention was to paint different stages in a life of a rose from bud to nearly dead flower in light and shadow . Not very happy with the result , realised flowers are very challenging .
