I painted this on the evening of May 2, and may change the date of this post later.  My computer went into a coma over the weekend…and it’s just back in my control as of today.  I will post another painting that is related tomorrow and have more to say then.  For now, this was done at night, on a whim, with oils.  Bert bought these at the farmer’s market.  I would have chosen something else, because this color is almost impossible to paint.  They were $4 and they are still perky over a week later.  I really did not think I would even attempt them, but I guess I was wrong…When I changed the vase they were in and cut them down they just looked so amazing on the dining room table after a day of cleaning the apartment…the cool against the warm table in the light.  We spent about an hour trying to figure out what type of flower they were.  I got a download of the name “Dianthus” after a while and they have sub species, this one being, believe it or not, “Purple Bouquet”( Dianthus)!  So I could’ve just gone with that  as my original idea for the title and been done with it!
