"Onion"

10"x8", oil on canvas


Well, This onion was not an object to inspire me to paint.
But the painting turned out quite all right than I expected.
Actually, there were lots of interesting variation of hue, color temperature, texture, reflections within that plain, large, drying up onion ... made me get involved, once I started to paint.

This is a revision of yesterday's painting. some part, better on v.1.

"Three Apples"

v.1
10"x8", oil on canvas



I did this painting during the nighttime. When I see this painting during the day, the shadow area seems too heavy. So.. I am working on it more.
Wish that I could improve the painting. It is always better to do another painting, since I tend to loose my patience and kill all the freshness. Lets see... It is all about learning, I guess...

"Camellia"

12"x16", oil on canvas panel
My good friend, Susan has beautiful Camellia shrubs by her front porch. They are absolutely beautiful and made me feel like to paint them.
I tried to make a composition with this painting, not just a pretty flower painting.
That attempt gave me so much challenge.

"Yellow Rose"

8"x10", oil on canvas panel


I did this painting about two weeks ago.
I have to discipline myself to post on the Blog right away as soon as painting is done.





This painting makes a nice triptych with other flower paintings I did for a while ago. How do you think?
