Roses in the Rain
These are the Roses in by backyard during the rainy season. I'm not a big floral type dude, but decided I wanted to enter a International artist magazine contest. 9x12 oil on linen.

Just plain delcious!
Beautiful painting.
There’s a lot of felling in this one. You portray the beauty and gloom of a rainy day with such grace sir. Congrats on a really nice piece of work, and good luck with the contest.
AM thanks enjoy the snack.
I like the fallen petals. I just caught the showing of Korgoth tonight, great work on those backgrounds!
One of your best. Tremendous.
Now you are pegged as the floral dude.
...not. I do believe you can do just about anything you put your mind to.
thanks

thanks justin, I did enjoy doing it. Don't know if I'll do a ton of them but...
Hey BG-- Thaks I had some issue wih the BG's But will iron those projects out in the future.
Really thaks Dan. You do have a soft girl side.
thanks Robin,
Next little baby blue gingerbread houses with pink snow like frosting on a sparkly cake.
Lovely feeling. You definitely captured the quality of a rainy day. Very nice!
As much as I'm an Urban Barbarian, I do have a soft side! This one is really something special.
Oh Dan,
Let's paint flowers together... Better yet ... pose for me?
I will be the Rosebud to your Orson Welles!
I read International Artist too and now they've changed it so you can enter digitally I've been thinking of entering at some point. I have a good feeling about your painting - I can just see it on one of the pages. I really hope you win something. I will be hugely excited if you do!! Good luck!
Lesley-- Thanks and yes iIdigitally entered this time. the future is now!
You nailed 'em. I can hear the rain and smell the damp earth just looking at this.
took my breath!
so glad I stopped in.
Breathe deep glam-- Breathe!!
You to Rebecca! Breathe!
Hey, Bill!
I just got all 4 issues of your Big Blown Baby comics (I've never seen them before). They are amazing! Cartoony and gross!
Love the new painting of the roses too. Those leaves look nice.
BEAUITFUL!! WOW!!
Shawn, But did you read them? They are actually funny.
Of course, I'm in the process of reading them (only just got them yesterday). And they ARE funny. I was reading some last night, laughing my ass off! You're a sick man, Bill!!!
Now I'm off to read more Big Blown Baby!
Thank God at that comic book sickness has passed... Now I'm all rose's and rain.
This is amazing ! I love it ! :)
thnaks Sheri--
Bill - this is gorgeous - and it takes a non-floral painter to know how to paint flowers so they get that second look and WOW!!! This is just so not traditional - even if it is for International Artist ;)
Hey K-- Yes it may be a stretch for them over at IA-- They love photo real renderings of the obvious, but you never know. Maybe someone there will feel it.
thanks Kris,
Fragility is my middle name.
this is my favorite!! great work!
