Truely. So my friend rang at my door and what a surprise, offered me this beautiful bouquet of orange roses.<\/p>\n<p>I couldn&#8217;t resist and I told myself. Why not paint this bouquet directly freely, as I want, well rather as I can, without going through the watercolor pencil drawing box. Seems like a good idea ? Although\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>When I found myself facing the white canvas\u2026 I took a deep breath and off I go with my brush a little bit of ocher and a lot of white, I started sketching a few roses. Then I put on some color. Then I really speed up and without necessarily looking at the bouquet, I improvised.<\/p>\n<p>At first, I would have screamed in horror because it looked like nothing. And then, little by little, with hindsight, the buttons appeared. I counted them in the bouquet and the idea was to paint as many. But eventually I gave up and got into a pigment race. What lightness, what happiness.<\/p>\n<p>And then, the stalks. Well yes, roses have stalks, even if in real life, they are in a vase and this is not what I chose for this painting at all. So I work harder. At first I randomly put 1, then 2, then 3. Maybe 4, I don&#8217;t know. And I sign.<\/p>\n<p>For me, I consider it as done. And then, during the night, a doubt literally invaded me. Why did I stop at 3, 4 stalks? It doesn&#8217;t make sense at all. I had more than 20 roses, so obviously that was completely unreal and ridiculous. So I adapt myself, I take a paper towel, white spirit and I erase all the bottom of the canvas, all the work of the day before. But it&#8217;s for a good reason. So off I go, I concentrate to give this bouquet all its magnificence! And here are some 20 stalks. Ah, that\u2019s a lot better.<\/p>\n<p>There you go, it&#8217;s finally over. I am very happy with the result. Well, this is not a &#8220;master piece&#8221; as they say but it is for me a first free try without any constraints. This is a painting that will stay at home and that I look at regularly. I like it quite a bit.<\/p>\n<p>Sweetheart let see if the Rose \u2026<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oil on canvas \u2013 11,81 x 11,81 inch \u2013 Unique work Sweetheart let see if the Rose \u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[5],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/925"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=925"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/925\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":927,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/925\/revisions\/927"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=925"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=925"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=925"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
