Summer Blue -oil painting,hydrangeas,flowers,still life

24"x30" oil on canvas. Summer Blue. Hydrangeas again - love em or hate em they are the flowers of summer ... kinda have to paint them at least once.

With the bigger paintings, I'm experimenting with thick and thin paint - its very freeing.

except my little dog likes to sleep directly under the easel and with the dripping happening here, well lets just say he got a bath in the sink later
