"Wild Pink Flowers "

6"x6", oil on gesso board

It is spring time in LA.
All the hills are covered with wild flowers: poppies, ice plant, daisies... I picked some pink flowers for my daily painting while I was walking dogs this morning.
For this painting, I added some graphic elements to the back ground. Also I used split complementary colors; Red Violet to BlueGreen and YellowGreen. It was quite challenge to do this painting. Subtle change of color and values in the flower, composition and design, hue and value ... evreything.

My puppies, Lucia and Sydney taking nap.
