Les orchidées ensemble Painting

I painted these orchids from life from a plant that a friend had given me. Using the soft light of my north facing window in my studio, I placed them against a gray background that I interpreted as a kind of fog or cloud. I loved mixing the delicate lavender tones of the petals. Working in an impressionistic style I used large brushes and a palette knife to build the texture. The details in the center of the flowers are applied with thick paint, while some of the background strokes are applied with more transparent layers. The mood of the piece is one of serenity and calm, which is what the experience of painting the orchids gave to me.
