Description
Here is a different perspective of this beautiful tropical flower. I decided to paint the back side because of all the vanes and textures I saw. This painting is a companion piece to my Yellow Hibiscus painting. Both are painted on beveled canvases. Both have pedals and leaves spilling over the sides.
To get the composition for this painting I went out and photographed a lot of hibiscus flowers. Keeping in mind how I wanted the painting to look. Deciding on the dark green, almost black, background really helps the yellow flowers pop.
This painting is the "Best In Show" winner in the Lahaina Arts Association's 2018 Mahalo Show.

Thank you Jason. Painting the backside of the hibiscus was a challenge I greatly enjoyed.
