I was simply going through my images looking for the next portrait reference and a photo of three roses in a decorative vase (clearly out of place) was before me.

When it was finished, I wanted to try a different style of painting as well. So, I&#8217;ve ended up with two quite different paintings from the same reference image.  The image to the right is most like the reference in colors and proportions. The one above is much more of an interpretation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, it&#8217;s time for me to get back to my portrait study. The portrait reference is from a tight head shot, which is not the kind of portrait I particularly enjoy painting, but it&#8217;s continuing practice in drawing, developing an eye for proportions. and painting features which is a process and practice which never ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hope you enjoy the roses. I know you don&#8217;t  particularly enjoy commenting, but I would love to hear your thoughts\/preference regarding these two paintings, so I will leave the comments turned on &#8211; but no pressure.
