Original artwork description:

I love white flowers. I find them incredibly delicate. Peonies, daisies, roses, lilies of the valley, or cosmos, are depicted in this picture._x000D_ When my husband saw the picture for the first time, he exclaimed: "What beautiful daisies!"_x000D_ I was upset that I could not convey the image of this delicate flower._x000D_ Then I realized that many men do not know the names of many flowers very well._x000D_ After all, all the women who have seen the picture say that these are cosmos._x000D_ I'll tell you a little about the technique in which this still life is painting. The method is interesting; it is called differently by different artists and performed in different variations. I am not the discoverer of this method, but I drow with this technique in a convenient way for me._x000D_ It's wiping the paint in the right places to a white canvas. And in shady areas remains the density of colour._x000D_ Then there is the refinement of small details._x000D_ In this case, the preparation of the canvas plays almost the primary role in painting. I take fine-grained flax, glue and prime in several thin layers._x000D_ In this way, the smoothness of the canvas is achieved; this is necessary so that the paint can be easily erased in the right places.

Materials used:
