Orange, Yellow, Blue

Orange, Yellow, Blue
12 x 12 Oil Painting
by Pat Fiorello

 

Bought some zinnias and ranunculus a few weeks back. I was looking for yellow and orange flowers to contrast with the blue in one of my favorite vases (you have probably seen it appear in previous paintings and I'm sure it will show up in more to come).  I had started this painting back then, but then had to put it aside for several commissions on tight deadlines, so thought today might be the day to revisit it. The background is not quite as vibrant as it appears on screen- a bit more of a pale yellow ochre.
