Gouache (opaque watercolor) Painting: Roses

May 20, 2009 · Posted in Watercolors · 1 Comment 

It’s still too early this year for the roses to be blooming, but I had hardly wait! I love painting and drawing them. This is a gouache painting I did of some fantastic pink/yellow roses growing in my neighbor’s yard. (Someone said they are called “peace roses”, but I don’t know if that’s accurate.) Although I do love them as subject matter for art, actually tending to them as living beings is far too time and energy consuming for me. I leave it to others to do that part, and am grateful they do!

This painting is available as a giclee print, on paper or canvas, in various sizes, at http://www.fineartamerica.com/profiles/suzanne-schaefer/html You may also get it on a coffee mug or as a greeting card at my Zazzle store… http://www.zazzle.com/zannie947.
