Description
I adore the autumn season and zinnias. Here in the south they so often bring color and cheer in a changing season as living accents alongside the famous chrysanthemums. So, I just let myself go with this one. It is an expressionist piece done with thick dabs of acrylic paints both satin and glossy in celebration of the beautiful and hardy zinnia. Because of the nature of the kind of paint I used there was no way to keep a shine off the photograph I took for putting this into print. I think it looks really cool with the natural highlights, shine and shadows in the print - so it's double the fun of photography and painting! I love the way this one turned out. I hope you do too. Enjoy!
