Happy Valentines day to all my blog readers. Whether you are a romantic or not painting roses is such a fabulous way to spend time. I do love that my " Painting Roses" posts on my blog have become so popular. So to celebrate this day of all days, when roses are important, here are a few of my happiest memories and favourite watercolour paintings of roses.
On my easel, a rose collection
Bursting with light, a rose coming to life
A very old favourite from years ago
Scents of Summer
Again, an old favourite of mine.

Artist Tips for the Day
Paint from life as much as possible
Try to capture a sense of emotion in your work
When painting flowers think about whether they are soft and delicate and choose colour accordingly.

Jean -- these are gorgeous so beautiful and you do make it look so very effortless.. positive thoughts and beauty seem to flow out of you, love to you,Diana
Your work is so beautiful, Jean! I keep reading your posts but attempting your techniques is proving, as I knew it would, very difficult because of my warped fingers (disabling condition). However, I'm often trying a watercolour effect with my digital work so all is not entirely lost and you are a great inspiration to me.

OUTSTANDING Roses!!! I love your work!!!
