October Dahlias



 I was so busy painting and traveling in October no time to post! These are some of the paintings I worked on ...The first was done at my sister Thea's house, I loved the leaves in the yellow water and the goldfish tank behind....well I loved it all, the window with the autumn leaves falling, the Mexican fabric the vase is sitting on....24x30 oil on canvas ...The second study was done after I went and picked a huge bouquet of Dahlias at Naumkeag gardens in Stockbridge Ma.... These blossoms  are just reaching their peak before the first frost...this I painted at my house, The petals and colors are so lush and gorgeous!  24x30 oil on canvas
