tulips, tulips, tulips, and more tulips


acrylic 4" x 4"

Even though spring has been here for a few weeks now, everything is still pretty gray around here.  So, I needed some nice bright color.  I love tulips but I don't think they're the easiest to paint.  I got frustrated quickly and had to start another painting...

and then another...
 
 
They are all more like "color studies" then finished paintings, but I had fun anyway.  I was experimenting with different color grounds which is always interesting, to see how the colors change on the different color backgrounds.
