I'm pretty inexperienced when it comes to painting but I've been practicing a fair bit at the moment. Oils are easily my favourites. Lately I've been doing some flowers.


This is where I work (it's tidier now!), incomplete painting featured in this pic






Here's the finished thing on a wall




This one ain't finished but I'll put a better pic up when it is.





i'm gonna keep adding stuff here as time goes on, i'm painting as we speak

Very pretty.

I think the top two bands of colour dominate the picture too much. It's like you added them to balance out the image, and they have a kind of heartlessness to them for their practicality. They are so heavy and homogeneous compared to the other details. They suffocate the image, for me.

yeah I was gonna say that too

the placing of them is good for the composition but you need them to sit happily with the rest of the colours so you don't just end up staring at them

tricky to correct mistakes big rich colours like that with oils though
