Rustic Roses daily painting

I'm trying to loosen up and do work that's a bit less detailed. Many of the paintings that I really admire have extremely loose brushstrokes. Not as easy at it looks. Seems it takes a lot of effort to look effortless. One of my favorite quotes is Thomas Jefferson's "If I had more time I'd write shorter letters." I think that translates to painting, also :-} "Rustic Roses" oil on canvas 8"x 6" available at Daily Paintworks

Rose on Top daily painting

I painted this while watching "Cupcake Wars" They invented that show just for me. I just signed up for a new auction site created just for Daily Painters by Carol Marine. The charge is only 3% for sales compared to eBay's 9%. eBay is now even adding your shipping costs to the total amount they use to calculate the percentage. Carol is a very successful daily painter whose works sells daily for well over $150. You can see my auction here. To see other art in the auction click here. I think the quality of work is higher in general than eBay
