White Roses

The high heat of the summer is less intense these days as we make our way toward fall. Bright greens have dimmed and the yellows and purples that tend to mark the onset of autumn can be found in wild flowers and in garden beds.

Mums are finding their way to retail shelves along with bright pansies. And for my garden, the last of the roses are bidding the summer adieu.

This small splash and splatter was a demo for one of my classes .. I like the use of turquoise in it - to me, at least this year, it seems to fit the seasonal color shift.

Have a great weekend.

The touches of turquoise really add to the look. Your negative painting is always so well done. Bravo!

Lin - these roses are precious - not only in the garden but in your art too. I too love the color you used...turquoise - great background with all the free marks. Hope you have a lovely September day.
