Roses - Oil Painting

Roses Oil Painting






Had not done any oil painting in a while.  Valentines day rolled around and there were a lot of roses on sale so I took the opportunity.  This was going to be a very conventional still life but it drifted away form it pretty fast.  Drew the roses in pencil - it was really nice sketch.  Went over it with acrylic and it got obliterated so I just dove in with the paint.  I completed the background in the next sitting.  Sorry about light - energy saving bulbs- not so great some times.
