Description
Featured on the Home Pages of Fine Art America Groups! This luscious white Hibiscus flower was an indoor friend who loved her sunny window. I gently misted her with water, and on a lazy afternoon, this perfect flower seemed to exhale, and gently send her perfume wafting upwards. The closer I looked at it as I painted, I saw more and more details, so from each water droplet which clung to the petals, to the delicately colored veins, and the hint of blue in the white petals, I did my very best to capture this beauty. This oil painting was done using the Chiaroscuro method in a hyper-realistic style.

Thank you Stanza! It was done on a canvas I had painted black and then carefully nursed the tones out of the darkness using thin glazes of color to bring a luminescence to the flower. I love giving an individual personality to a flower by inferring a mood with lighting! So glad you like it!
