Azaleas


Azaleas
$100

Oil on Canvas
11 x14 inches
2009
Auburn, Alabama

This painting was done as a sample for my Tuesday afternoon painting class. I try to have a painting done a day or two ahead of the class but that isn’t always the case.
The class was starting at 1 o’clock and it was already past 10:30 and I had no idea what to do. Panic was setting in, so I called a friend for advice. She said “paint flowers, everyone loves flowers”.
I went outside and tore some azaleas from a bush out back and frantically set about painting it. Sometimes those are the best paintings.
