Painting of the Week: Dandelions in the Wind

November 19, 2016 by Emily James Leave a Comment

Since I’m a new painter, I’ve started by choosing tutorials that are simple. This one I actually painted on a cut-up pizza box covered in white gesso (you can see the rough edges) because I really wanted to paint, but I have a limited budget for supplies.

Why I Chose This Painting:

To my parents, dandelions were weeds. To me, they were beautiful. Few things were more fun than finding a dandelion in seed, taking a huge breath, and blowing the white fluff.

This painting took me back to those carefree childhood days of dandelion necklaces, star spinning, and running through water from the hose.
