I've begun a new piece based on an old piece of work. Years ago, I painted a vase of Melting Flowers that were sitting on my parent's kitchen table over a weekend as they wilted in the heat. In my eyes, they were truly melting as each flower drooped in the Summer Heat and the petals fell to the table. It wasn't hard to get the right feel for the heat in the painting. However, my Mum hates the painting itself as she thinks it's creepy, to me it's just a vase of flowers with the colour of them melting onto the tabletop. This new painting it along the same lines, but it's a close-up of a couple of the flowers I painted all that time ago. I only started it a few days ago; and I'm happy with the results so far.
