IrisAcrylic on canvas, 48" x 30", May 28, 2009
This piece has been in the making for a long time. This was my first attempt to stretch my own canvas, and boy did I choose a fun one to start with. The piece is 4 feet wide and 2.5 feet high! This is the largest painting I've done on canvas...but I'm getting off the subject. I stretched the canvas a year ago, and did not start painting on it until later...much later. I worked on it the last month and finally put the finishing touches on it yesterday.
This one will not be sold. It is a gift to my lovely wife for our eighth wedding anniversary!
