Description
This image's title, "Fleeting Glory" is representative of how quickly peonies change right before your eyes and how quickly they must be painted when working from life. Buds open right before your eyes and the essence of the flowers has to be captured with quick, confident strokes. They give an artist no time to second guess - which is one of the reasons Audrey Jeanne loves painting them so much!
This trio of three peonies grew in Audrey Jeanne's own gardens and were painted from life in watercolors, then mixed collage style with other elements of her art including patterned, whimsical butterflies, hand written text in the background for texture and textural borders of gouache and watercolor that finish off the composition. Painterly elements of pattern are subtly infused into the flowers petals, drawing the eye to explore more deeply. Copyright 2015 Audrey Jeanne Roberts, all rights reserved.
