Peace Lily Daily Painting by Mary Beth Brath


Peace Lily in Mom's Art Pottery by Mary Beth Brath
6x6" Acrylic on Strathmore Canvas Paper
Limited Palette Study

June was packed with large fine art events. I feel they were a great success, but relieved July is here! Last night I was so eager to paint in peace.  So here is the result...one for my "bedroom series".  This was completed in one sitting...in my bed. I used a limited palette of Chroma Interactive Arylamide Yellow Light, Phalo Blue and Quinacridone Magenta.  Near the end I added in some Titanium White.  I really like the fauve/post impressionistic feel in this one. Think I will do another tonight.

Painting in bed - how delightfully decadent! I like this one a lot, Mary Beth.

Frida Kahlo painted in bed after her accident. Go, Mary Beth!

Donna - I love the movie about Frida. I have watched it a few times.
