"Prims and Roses" Contemporary Floral Oil Painting by Arizona Artist Mary Opat


"Roses and Prims" Contemporary Floral Oil Painting by
Arizona Artist Mary Opat

30" x 40" Oil on Stretched Canvas

For me, the play of sunlight and shadow is an important part of this
painting.  I changed a few of the wall angles to enhance the 
composition and pushed the warmth of the sun hitting the table.

"Lily In A Glass Vase" by Li Hua Mahalik

oil on board, 14x11

After a while, I thought I must have been nuts to paint such delicate flowers. Sunflowers are a lot easier; with many little petals, a few quick brush strokes with different shades of yellow will do the job. But a lily has only 5 petals and each has very delicate colors and design. Painting them made me feel humbled. 
I have also learned a lot about painting a plate. The edge of the plate going from the dark side to the light side is one continuous line. The transition from dark to light is a little tricky as it takes a lot of patience and steady hand to get it right. The temperature change is delicate and you need to clean the brush often. Since I didn't, it made me a bit frustrated. And so I learned.
