Spring Peonies


Spring Peonies
Oil  12" x 9"

(Temporarily on hold.  However, please contact me if interested.)

This is the 2nd painting from my peony bouquet.  I like to set aside a couple of days to paint flowers from the same bouquet.  I find it helps with the values and colors.

Above is the set up in my studio.
Below is just a small part of La Resolana Farm in Pueblo.
I definitely plan on going there again next spring!

$100.00 + $10. s/h

My plein air groups (I am in 2) recently painted at a peony farm in Pueblo, about an hour south of the Springs.  La Resolana Farm is 100 years old.  The peonies were originally planted to be used on the graves of WWI soldiers.  The farm is now acres of peonies and wild iris.  It is so beautiful when all are in bloom.



This is the bouquet that I brought home from the farm.  And the set up in my studio the day after I finished painting (the bud had started to open.)  Flowers have a mind of their own!  You have to
paint quickly!

100 Garden & Floral Oil Paintings, Original Artwork by Pam Holnback, 66/100

Peonies
6" x 6" Oil
$100.00 + $10. s/h

This morning my plein air group painted at a home with a magnificent garden.  Every square inch of the yard has been turned into growing space for herbs, vegetables and flowers.  It was magnificent!  And, the freshly baked rhubarb pie was delicious!  Thank you Natalya.
