Painting Old Fashioned Roses from my garden |
I
have been keeping busy with my art work lately.
I gathered a bunch of old fashioned roses from my garden this week. They only bloom once a season and only for a short time but
they are so beautiful and smell so divine.
I used them as a subject for one of my watercolor paintings.

I
also have been playing a bit with mixed media art. I am often inspired by old photos for my
figurative art and found this 1920’s photo of Lili Wegener on Wikipedia. Lili was a Danish transgender woman. She was a well-known landscape artist before
embracing her femininity.

I
used the photo of Lili as inspiration for this mixed media piece. I utilized watercolors, silk, acrylic
mediums, and mat board.
