Saturday's painting...

... A red rose. Mostly done with a palette knife. A4 sized. Acrylics.

I despaired as I was doing it. It looked nothing like a rose, more like a begonia. Then I slapped a bit of orange on, blended it, then in s*d it mode I slapped some white on the petals and walked away.

When I came back with a cuppa, hey presto, it looked like a rose. I am sure the fairies had a go with improving this while I was away in the kitchen making my cuppa...


In extras is my SillySaturday entry...Popeye was asleep in my bed when I got back home from collecting my parcel from the post office, with just this paw sticking out....
