iris

my brush art teacher had irises in the classroom

last night, yellow and deep purple ones, and i painted

this. the flower is too pink to me, from an artistic

view point. i got the color from mixing pink and deep

blue, but it is my “interpretation” of iris. ha!

having said that, i do love the strokes for both the

petals as well as the sweeping leaves, which resemble

orchid leaves. the subject itself was very peaceful for

me to paint, as all the strokes were quiet and flowing.
