Irises- Work in progress

Last Sunday my dear sweet grandmother turned 90. I noticed that she has too much blank space on the walls at her assisted living apartment so I am painting some irises for her- she loves flowers. I probably have one more 3 hour session to finish this up. The is my second attempt at an acrylic painting so I am still getting to know my new paints. I love the freedom of fast drying paint! But I do miss the nice glazes and the truer color I get from oil paints. We will see where this takes me!
