Art Inspiration: How to Paint a Rose and Artist Coaching Sessions

 

Hello My Fellow Art Lovers-  One of my favorite things to paint are roses.  For me they symbolize delicate beauty.  We use them to celebrate the stages of life.  They are vibrant and alive! When my grandfather's rosebush blooms every year I am reminded of him.   He planted gardens everywhere he lived, even in the deserts of Afghanistan.  That's me with him in his garden in Fredonia, New York. A few years ago I created a *free* online class called How to Paint a Rose.  I invite you to take it for free on my Teachable online class site. On it I explain step by step how I created this....
