With all the corsages and bunches I have saved as souvenirs, I never thought to paint them, feeling they would look too...dead. You, as always, breathe life into your subjects. So evocative...
Immediately I saw this it brought a sense of sadness altho your painting was excellent as always. Guess I remembered the original gift too vividly. But still, thanks , as always. Gfs
This painting is fabulous! Reminds me of Chardin's dead rabbit or Carel Fabritius's goldfinch painting the way it is composed against the wall. Love your coloring, Julian. Another masterpiece.
My wife does too and I've never tried painting them guess I'll try now she also after they are dry puts the blooms in a large glass canister they look so good
As I have always said, Julien .... you are the "Master of Shadows".
A beautiful and haunting piece. Something keeps drawing me back to this lovely painting.
