Roses.. Differences & Similarities...


This is sort of what I wanted..after considering how to place the petals etc..choosing the colors.....

This one of the first that I tried..using a traced pattern...


This is trying out Ros Singleton's but it does not come out too well...Still I am happy with it coz' it is different slightly.....















This the latest I have painted..








Now.. I am trying to select the colors of my roses... What colors to use most of the time... I always forgot to write down the colors used.. Only after finishing up and cleaning the work space.. I remember that I did not write the colors down... Therefore..the shades are always different... Only from this latest piece that I did write the colors down...Mint Green for base... Dark Salmon & Warm White for the roses...Old Ivy & Forest Green for the leaves.... This week has nothing new for me...coz'the kids are winding up the 2nd. semesters and lots of projects.. exams and shows to go too. Plus..I have committed for my own word-to-word Quran test...and I hope it works well...umm..I hope I will pass it...

Of all the roses, I love the ones you call your 'latest' the best. The ones on the oval tray. I love their colour, the way their petals are formed, their naturalness. Simply brilliant!

But, all your roses are lovely - it's just those that I like best! ;)

I am so inspired to keep on practising!!! Hahahaha!

I have been looking for Ros Singleton's book "Roses." Would you consider selling it to me? Thank you for your consideration. thescraplady@yahoo.com
