Oil on 6x6 canvas panel.This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. Susan was the hostess who supplied this great reference photo! Thanks, Susan!!
I was really tempted to do one of the doggies that were pictured, but I forced myself to get into a more uncomfortable zone. Namely flowers. I was encouraged by the waterlilies of last week, so I tried the dahlias. I used the painting knife once more. I also pushed the color.
Thanks for looking and commenting!
