"Dried Hydrangea" by Artist, NORA KASTEN


"Dried Hydrangea"

Copyright © by Nora Kasten, 2010
Oil painting on canvas  (36"x 30"x 1.5")
This is a painting I painted last summer and today went back in to work on the background, some red outlining and then let some drips appear.   Also want to mention that this bouquet is the centerpiece on our dining room table.  I painted it using Zorn's palette which consisted of only the three colors, cad red light, yellow ochre and ivory black.  It's amazing how so many colors can be made from that palette but I choose this monotone on purpose.
