Still Life

Things get so busy this time of year I haven’t had a chance to post lately.  I’ve also spent a lot of time painting a Christmas present but I don’t want to put it in the blog before it’s presented.   Here’s a still life I’ve just finished, ready for a group show in January.  I love the look of dried hydrangeas but wasn’t satisfied with the background.  So I painted in trees and a moon and changed the shape of the vase to echo the roundness of the moon.
