fresh / wilted
solo post - L
The empty canvas stands here, meant to inspire me. I get ideas in my head of what I want to paint but before I pick up the brush I'm tossing the ideas out with the wilted flowers. So many ideas – I just need to put the brush to the paint and paint to the canvas. I can always paint over it if I don't like it, just as easily as I can put fresh flowers in that vase.

If you care to visit, I, Leslye, have another blog - AutumnSun where I ramble around different paths and pleasures of my own.

You can do it! Pick an idea and go with it. If you change your mind, like you said, just paint over it!
Amen sister! Just DO it!
I understand the feeling...I do. hope you're inspired to start soon - I love your paintings
a rich metaphor Leslye...blue hydrangea shall inspire ;))))
What if I triple double dog dare you to paint something :o)
or
Maybe you could paint the wilted flowers instead of the norm?
Let inspiration be found in the seemingly uninspiring! Whatever you come up with will be beautiful to me either way. I love your paintings, too!
I do something similar with taking pictures. I wait for perfection, too often for me. It rarely comes. I wonder what I've missed in the meantime.
both beautiful. as i'm sure your painting will be, as well as the progression of it.
looking forward to seeing it.
I am interested in seeing what your fresh ideas bring...just start painting and I'm sure it will be great.
I really, really love hydrangeas!
