Into the Light

Into the Light
16 x 20 Oil Painting
by Pat Fiorello
My first large painting of the year. I had seen this grouping of white roses in Tuscany and had taken a photo. Finally got to paint them. My aim in this one was to get a sense of a lush garden with depth and roses coming out into the light. Concentrated lots on varying hard and soft edges and warm and cool colors.


Fort those of you in the Atlanta area, you are invited to a talk I'm giving on Monday 1/20 at the Atlanta Artists Center.  Invitation is below. The talk is on "Travel & Art Perfect Together" . It is a program which is part of the monthly AAC meeting, but even if you are not a member, you can come for free as a guest. I'll be talking about the top 10 reasons to combine travel & art as well as what you might want to consider when selecting a workshop.



AAC Is Celebrating 60 years!
There will be a special raffle to celebrate the

  2. Beautiful and very delicate. I love how you focused on only some, and left the viewer to fill in the rest.
