This required that I understand the flower structure and be able to visualize the petals\/flowers  and lighting as the flower is turned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>I love the vintage tray the vase is sitting on. &nbsp;I purchase most of my still life elements at Goodwill or at Poulsbo Antiques. On this one occasion, I walked into Goodwill and immediately spotted this tray &#8211; actually a removable table top. &nbsp;You can\u2019t see much of the tray in this painting, but it really is beautiful. &nbsp;It was  $175.00. &nbsp;I had no place to use it as a table and it was far too expensive to use as an occasional still life prop &#8211; so I walked away &#8211; reluctantly. &nbsp;The next time I was there it was $75.00. \u201cWOW&#8221;, I thought, but I still walked away. &nbsp;The next time, I was there it was $15.00!!! &nbsp;This item had been in the floor so long that the cashier further reduced it to $11.00. We all love a good deal!!<br>Hope you enjoy this painting. &nbsp;Next week I will post a very different style of painting &#8211;&nbsp;for me, and painted completely from imagination &#8211;  no roses involved.<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Roses are beautiful but complex to paint.&nbsp;It\u2019s been a few months now, that I focused on painting roses.&nbsp;I started by painting&nbsp;single roses which I enjoy, but I also wanted to paint rose bouquets and to paint roses abstractly without a &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/?p=16615\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":16616,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[307],"tags":[354,375],"class_list":["post-16615","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-traditional-oil-painting","tag-still-life-oil-painting","tag-still-life-oil-paintings-by-winifred"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Vintage-Tray.jpg","uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Vintage-Tray.jpg",501,664,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Vintage-Tray-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Vintage-Tray-226x300.jpg",226,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Vintage-Tray.jpg",501,664,false],"large":["https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Vintage-Tray.jpg",501,664,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Vintage-Tray.jpg",501,664,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Vintage-Tray.jpg",501,664,false],"post-thumbnail":["https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Vintage-Tray-501x288.jpg",501,288,true],"large-feature":["https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Vintage-Tray-501x288.jpg",501,288,true],"small-feature":["https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Vintage-Tray-226x300.jpg",226,300,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Winifred Whitfield","author_link":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/?author=2"},"uagb_comment_info":6,"uagb_excerpt":"Roses are beautiful but complex to paint.&nbsp;It\u2019s been a few months now, that I focused on painting roses.&nbsp;I started by painting&nbsp;single roses which I enjoy, but I also wanted to paint rose bouquets and to paint roses abstractly without a &hellip; Continue reading &rarr;","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p56JFk-4jZ","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16615","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=16615"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16615\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16632,"href":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16615\/revisions\/16632"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/16616"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=16615"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=16615"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=16615"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
