From Poppies to Geraniums I've happily hopped, using a photo by
@johnderian as reference for this work. Someone recently asked what
style of my painting is, in reference to the straight edge strokes. The
answer is that I don't think there is a name for that style or those
types of strokes ... except the way I get those strokes is that I use
for the most part, short flats (aka, short brights) in terms of
paintbrushes. I also sometimes use filberts but mostly short flats. They
help me keep things loose and avoid blending. Many thanks to John
Derian for this intriguing composition ... makes me think he was holding
a Geranium in front of a landscape with hills and a body of water at
dusk ... or maybe it was just growing there. Either way, it is so cool.
