Tulips Just for You

"Tulips: Just for You!" is yet another painting of Tulips heralding the Spring season. Inspired by my visit to The Floriade in Canberra a number of years ago. Although with a short life span, their vibrant cheery colours lets one forget the cold, wet, snowy Winter months just gone by and lifts ones spirits.
I tried something I don't often do in my practice, my heavily pigmented inks formed the background colours, which I kept to a warmish hue and then I used a palette knife for the design work of the tulips and their leaves, giving it an impressionistic feel. I decided to use some cool tones to create some contrast.
