Original artwork description:

This was the last rose in our garden this year and it seemed to be crying out for me to paint it. I love pinks and oranges together so I set up the still life using a small pink jug and some tangerines. I wanted to set the rose to the left of the painting near the top so the composition works in diagonals. It is painted on a linen canvas which has been treated with a colourless size so you can still see the linen colour. I have used Michael Harding oil paints. It is not currently framed although I could arrange framing if desired.

Materials used:

Oil on linen canvas
