(54) Pink Roses
6 x 6, oil
Hey, don't forget to take time to... oh, you know already. Same limited palette here. This was fun.
"It is not the language of the painters but the language of nature which one should listen to, the feeling for the things themselves, for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures"...Van Gogh

I stumbled onto your blog from Qiang's and really appreciated your artwork and quotes. I loved this quote from VanGogh (on your blog) and had never heard it - I put it in my quote book. I should read that each time I sit down to do a landscape!! Have you ever read Irving Stone's "Lust for Life" about VanGogh? I read it so long ago, but it was really good. Thank you for sharing your artwork with us.
