Another completed painting

2009.08.21

Jasmin des PoetesAt last, after 2 years on and off on the easel, Jasmin des Poètes was completed on august 14th – Usually I know when a painting is finished but this one had me second guess myself for a few days. My signature was on the canvas but I wasn’t entirely happy; some tiny little things are still bugging me but only I would know ;-) Given that this is my very first attempt at painting flowers, I think I should be proud.

I give myself a couple of weeks away from the easel and then I will continue working on my other still lives; the teapot one and the poinsettia which I’d like to complete before Christmas.

After these two paintings are done. I have other painting projects in mind already but I want to go in a different direction. They’ll still be still lives but not so traditional like these. Anyway, you’ll see :)

I’ll also be starting to give painting lessons (yay!) this September at a near-by community centre (Montreal area people, consult my web site if interested)

Reproductions (Prints and Print on canevas) and Greeting cards of Jasmin des Poètes are available at my Imagekind Gallery.
