Daffodils Three Vases

For this painting, I used a palette knife to create sharply defined areas of white.  I wanted to mass the whites and the grays to create a clear pattern of light and shadow.  Slightly larger 12" x 12".

Daffodil Bouquet in Top Lght

A bouquet of yellow and white and orange and white daffodils for spring. We have hundreds of daffodils popping up; enough for weeks of painting.  The yellow-centered ones are fragrant and the small orange-centered ones are an old fashioned variety with multiple flowers on a single stem.   The strong top lighting enables me to group the white tones and simplify the composition.  I like the yellows against the gray-it's a lovely combination.  On my ETSY store
