IRIS #2 • • • SOLD

It’s nice having these irises in the garden. I decided to have another go at them. The structure of the bloom is very complex, and it’s a challenge to keep the brushwork simple and direct. I especially like the purple and violet edges that tinge the lower petals.

  1. Both these Iris paintings are wonderful Jimmy.
    Love the colour work in the petals in this one!

  2. Thanks, Jeffrey. Sometimes it seems that everything else in a painting is the foil to show off one feature to best advantage. Showing the color in those petals was like that in this one.
