#111 Pilgrim's Barn is  our latest study painting in oils and I am really learning how to put the masses down and go from there. 

I love this technique and  will continue to use it more.  My canvas panels are well made and light weight.  My husband uses louan and we paint the back and adhere canvas to the front and sides.

                                                     I love the colors used, Purples, browns, gr

eens,and yellows. and a little red +  white.  9"x12" canvas panel

Pink Rose Daily painting

Posted on 5/12/2026 by Barbara Haviland-Texas Artist
Comment on this

The artwork is a painting of a single rose with a deep  pinks and whites hue. The rose is depicted at a stage where the blossom is partially opened, showcasing some interior petal layers as well as the outer petals curving outward. The rose's stem and several green leaves are visible embodying the flower's delicate nature. The coloration suggests light playing across the petals at the edges, giving the flower a vibrant and somewhat velvety texture. An emphasis on contrasting shades creates a sense of depth, with the darker background making the rose stand prominently as the focal point of the composition.

Small miniature pink rose is one of my daily paintings.  Signed and not framed

I am doing Limited palette studies and this is one.  I pick three colors and white to do a painting. This one I used French Ultramarine blue, Alizrin Crimson, Lemon Yellow and white.  It makes you think and is a great exercise.

Red Eyed Frog is one that I drew and painted on a canvas. I have matted it and will have to measure its complete size.
