Title
Ode To Georgia 1
Artist
Conni Schaftenaar
Medium
Painting - Watercolor On Paper
Description
White wild morning glories in watercolor in the style of Georgia O'Keeffe, by Conni Schaftenaar.
Recently the artist guild to which I belong had as the work topic of our meeting to paint in the style of a favorite major artist. I chose Georgia, because I love to paint flowers and I LOVE her floral watercolors. I have a long way to go, so I titled this Ode to Georgia 1, in anticipation of doing some more to try to get just a little closer in style to this master of the medium! I hope you enjoy this and find it an acceptable first step in my quest!
Reference photo is mine - a photo of wild bind weed or morning glories taken on my farm in West Michigan several years ago. My husband hates them and tries to eradicate them; I love them and I'm glad that so far he has failed!
This painting is a 4x6, destined to be one of my submissions in an upcoming Postcard Salon in the Muskegon Art Museum.
