When I saw Jeenie11(Jens) photo of this lovely yellow flower I just had to do a painting of it. I decided to use black acrylic(ABS) as the canvas, instead of the standard canvas, because I just knew that yellow would look wonderful on the black. So by using acrylic paints on acrylic material, the two things almost 'fuse' together.I used a pallette knife and brushes. Of course, the effect doesn't really show up that well by taking a photo of a painting. I hope Jen will like this version of her photo.

Great painting there, Verena. There's something about large yellow flowers that just makes you smile.

I was very drawn to this~ I always have great appreciation for people who paint and even those who do it very well. You are defiantly one of those people who paint well~ I love this, the simplicity is great and the black really brings out the flower~ As painting isn't my forte or talent, I can't give you any criticism but this is very beautiful and I would love to see more~

Simple yet effective presentation. Nice colour shades on the petals. I like those little touches of blue/green(?) on the petals. Glad to see you went with a thin border. A beautiful painting Verena.
