I was a guest of Nancy Colella who made a fabulous picnic lunch for me and my artist pals. It was in an authentic Vermont barn that had been moved and reassembled on a beautiful spot near the North River, surrounded by lush gardens and geese and chickens. We shopped the handmades and garden goods- all profits go to charity.
I bought this sweet zinnia arrangement -and painted them the next day. Thanks to some helpful tips from my artist friends I painted the darkest dark first and lightened up later. Oils are opposite from watercolors-which are light to dark.Im always learinig- sometimes the most obvious stuff!
