The hydrangea offers so many challenges. Not only are they lovely in bloom, but the range of colors they assume as they fade is nearly endless. Then there’s the off-symmetry of the flower heads, and how to paint the airiness of them. This painting is based on some photographs I took last summer. After working on a couple of hydrangea paintings, I’m beginning to see the potential for more….enjoy.
Beauty! I like the delicacy of your approach.
Thank you Gregorio. It has taken me awhile to figure out those hydrangea – what a complex flower! The first dozen tries went in the circular file….r
