Zinnia Silhouette: Pink & Red

The Zinnia Silhouette Collection really happened a bit by accident, because as I was starting to paint a collection of colorful zinnia paintings, my Instagram followers kept mentioning how much they loved the initial painted sketches on the canvases before I started layering on the color! I got to thinking about how I would paint the pieces if the sketch WAS the painting, what things I might do differently or what details I might add and that is how the Zinnia Silhouettes were born!  I've loved dreaming up the various color combinations and the painting of each one has been a joy! Ahhh, this painting makes me so happy!  The mid-tone pink background is the perfect setting for the bouquet of orangey-red flowers!  The colors just sing and it would make for such a fun addition to any room where you want to add a delightful pop of color! Original acrylic painting by Dawn McVey Canvas size: 11" x 14" x 1.5" Painted on 1-1/2" deep edge, gallery profile canvas. Edges are fully painted so fram
