"Rainy Day Rose" by Ann McCann 8 X 8" Oil

It was cold and rainy yesterday, and so I wanted to paint a sunny rose. Here she is. Pretend it is a warm spring day, the sun is shining and there is a lovely warm breeze.

Plumbago 72 7.jpg

"Jerusalem Blues" by Ann McCann 11 X 14" Oil

January 15, 2020

This blue plumbago vine blooms all over the city of Jerusalem. I liked this perspective of the blooms exploding toward you. Blue flowers are tough to paint as they naturally recede, but here I wanted them to be the center of interest. To do that, I had to add the warm peach color. I’m still making adjustments but am almost done.
