Happy New Year!!  As one of my New Year's resolutions, I am planning to finish unfinished paintings.  This one has been hanging around for about 4 years and looked very different than it does now.  I started it in acrylic and had painted the canvas red before I began the painting letting a lot of the red peek through.  I decided that I wanted it to be a softer painting so I painted over the red and switched to oil.  I haven't really painted flowers for many years so it was interesting to work on this.  I'm happy to have finished it and will be hunting through my studio to find another unfinished painting...
