This is the demo painting I made while teaching a private still life oil
painting session in my studio. How did I get the rose to stand erect
like that? A flower frog! My favorite new thing for flower arranging.
This was a very challenging composition and I'm really so proud of the
three humans who were painting with me for sticking with it ... dealing
with the complexity of the mug's handle, the nuances of the two glass
objects, and of course the flowers and other elements. No one gave up
and everyone left resolved to practice soon and often. Music to my ears.
