Hydrangea Blue
Blue Hydrangeas
The french gîte we are currently staying in has beautiful blue hydrangeas in its garden, I have noticed hydrangeas growing all around the Brittany region in a variety of wonderful colours.
After a cup of coffee I spent the afternoon painting these lovely blue flowers. There seemed to be a range of blue and purple hues across the plants, even different colours on the same flower head.

Wow, those flowers are absolutely beautiful, both visually and by name. I'm assuming from your post that you are currently visting my country, France. I hope you'll enjoy your stay!
Bonjour! Yes I am, I love France!
Your work always soothes me, thanks for this latest piece
A pleasure to share this with you.
I admire her garden lady @opheliafu congratulations, this work is very beautiful, thank you very much for delighting our looks with these beauties.
Have a beautiful day
Have a beautiful day too my friend!
How long does it take to make a work like this?)
To be honest I lose track of time and make it in stages (waiting for paint layers to dry) so I couldn't say for sure.
From the first sight it looks simple. But when i look closely they change to blue pearls.
Even though i like drawings with details - i keep observing your painting a lot.
Hmmm.. strange
It looks quite awesome Love the blue fade into the sky blue theme.
You noticed the details in the background, excellent.
Waoww what a Art
Very beautiful
It make me feel Relaxed
What a cool vibe to get from it, thanks!
