While sorting out my little art room over the long weekend, I found two paintings that were unfinished - both will fit the series I'm working on for the "male" versions. So I have to find more "female" versions of plant life to paint. I do have one I'm working on right now so stay tuned for that...
This one =
Half sheet (15 x 22 inches) Arches 140# cold press
Plant Life: Male No. 3
And, biologically, I know that a flower has both male and female parts but I'm just going on the obvious (or not so obvious) shapes to guide whether I call these male or female plants :) Hope no one is offended but gets the humor - it worked for Georgia O'Keeffe, didn't it? Of course, she wasn't happy and always said others saw things in her macro flowers that were NOT there (and sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, Sigmund!)

Oh, work is soo beatuiful, especially colours, Rhonda! Hahahaha! Thank you, I could laugh well with your post. Yes, both of us are interested in Gerogia. Best wishes, Sadami
I like this series! Good job!
This is one of my favorites of your paintings to date, Rhonda! The color saturation is phenomenal! And I love the sense of humor (I am a dirty girl, I guess). Made me smile this morning for sure. Not an O'Keefe fan at all but do like what you are doing here.
Holy smokes, Batman! The hot reds in this are D-licious! Really nice work, Rhonda. I want...
Thanks, Sadami, Deb, and Sherry :)
Thanks, Alice Jo!
the colours on this are amazing :) really reminds me of someone (its a good thing in my book at least), just can't remember who...need to do some more art history studying again :p
not offended at all by the humour :)
I love this painting, Rhonda.
Thank you, Jennifer Rose and Christiane :)
I love the delicate colors in the white flower and the bolder colors in the background and leaves.
Thanks, Carol :) Really like your last painting - totally not something I'd paint but you do it so well.
