The image colors on my monitor seem to be a bit stronger than in real life on this painting. the oranges are lighter in person. The cobalt is close to the actual piece.
I once again am trying to be loose, but I guess my basic personality is fighting all the way. I tend to want it perfect. Why not perfectly loose! Anyway, I added some pallet knife areas (in the above detail photo) especially to the oranges and I think it adds some character and suggestive passages. Copyright of the artist 2009
Resting upon the blue and white vase, the white orchid appears to have found a comfortable resting place. I still love all things blue and white.
This painting has a wispy quality to the orchid petals... done with several glazes and layers. At the same time the porcelain came out looking like porcelain with reflections and transparency. I really like how this painting came out. Hope you like it too. Copyright of the artist 2009
Trying to be loose and suggestive. At the same time I'm letting the whites pick up the glow of the surrounding colors. The light hitting the clay pot is very different than the light on porcelain...a very dull surface, so no extreme reflection points. Copyright of the artist 2009

One of the art groups I belong to has a challenge every now and then. The newest is to paint something in just white. I really like painting white because of the reflective quality and how it picks up the surrounding colors. So, a white orchid ina white vase seemed to meet the challenge.
