'Last Rose'
Oil 6 x 6
57/100
Day 57
The flowers are quickly starting to fade, but this red
rose always hangs in there and gives me flowers until
the first hard frost. One year I had roses clear up until
December - what a treat!
The container for the rose is the bottom of an old salt
shaker. I think it made a nice little vase - what do you think?

Claire, I love just about all your paintings, and this little one is so nice. I love how you painted the salt shaker vase! The background gives a nice antique feel to one of the most celebrated flowers.
I am learning so much through the DPP blog!
I feel the weight of the flower. Great work!
It makes me a little sad to see such a beautiful flower hang its head so low. It should be standing up straight with pride--always love your backgrounds.
Thank you, Sunny.
This is a wonderful blog - so glad to have you as a follower!
Thanks much Mary Beth and Cecelia.
