Canola oil painting

I did this studio oil painting yesterday based on a plein air sketch I did in Porongurup last weekend.

 Here's a close-up of the brushwork on the flowers.


And here's the on-site sketch from last week.

    These are both gorgeous, Andy! You really caught the atmosphere - and what a beautiful place.

    Thanks Laurel. It's a beautiful time of year around here. Patches of canola stretch to the horizon, the wildflowers are blooming and the sun has even made an occasional appearance :)
