It's beautiful! I'll take the painting, the bouquet, the vase, AND the super cute upholstered chair in the painting!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous work, Carrie! And I love your studio assistant :-D
ReplyDeleteCarrie - I don't know how you do it! Where in the world do you find the time to take care of the house, kids, your hubby and do your art?
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE this painting! They look so realistic, I want to touch and smell them (not sure if they smell tho.). I love the material in the background, what is that from?
That is so cute Ella wanted to get in on the action. Cute picture of her....
Please pass an ounce of your talent to me....

ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely painting. I love hydrangeas too, but don't have the patience to paint them in such exquisite detail. Glad to see you have a feline supervisor too... (Sorry, made a typo in the previous comment).
ReplyDeleteYou've done a fantastic job Carrie! I love this painting, the variation of colors in the flowers is beautiful. Such delicate work, and done with a confident hand too. Really, really lovely. Also, great job with the vase, the curves look great, that's always tricky for me :)
ReplyDeleteCarrie, the painting is beautiful! I love the hydrengea in the sugarbowl, I recognized the china right away. I still have one of the hydrengea arrangements you did for Sarah and Jon's rehearsal. I don't know how you managed finishing this with Brian gone, signing Steven up for preschool, getting shots etc. I've decided you must be superwoman! Keep up the beautiful work! Debbie
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! There are a lot of petals on these hydrangeas and I think I just about went blind staring at them for so long. To answer questions about the still life. It is fabric draped in the background, but Kristina, it would make a super cute chair. I actually scoured fabric stores looking for fabric that I would like with the hydrangeas. The hydrangeas are in a soup tureen, it's large and there are a lot of bunches of hydrangeas in there. And as far as finding the time to paint, I will admit that I have gotten a little addicted to Diet Mt. Dew (this is really bad since I gave up caffeine a few years ago). But, you have to do what you have to do, and staying up until 2 a.m. to paint and getting up with munchkins requires caffeine:) I think I'm a glutton for punishment because I'm about to start another hydrangea painting, I think I'm addicted:) I appreciate everyone's comments, it makes me uber happy to read comments and know that people are viewing my work. Thanks again, everybody!!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely work. I love that your cat admired it too.
ReplyDeleteKeep on painting and sharing your gorgeous work!
