 "Petals and Coffee", 11x14, oil on linen

I am happy to say that this impressionist floral was juried into the American Impressionist Society's National Exhibit last fall, and has also just been juried into the American Women Artists annual online exhibit!

I enjoyed telling the story of these roses through paint strokes while evoking a peaceful atmosphere through the softly painted background. 

At the last minute, I decided to add the cherries to add more color harmony to the foreground.

"Raining Rose Petals", 12x9, oil, floral painting, impressionist roses, American impressionist society, colorful floral painting, Maryanne Jacobsen art


 "Raining Rose Petals", 12x9, oil

This painting was painted in the impressionist style and was juried into the American Impressionist Society's Fall online exhibit. I have always loved painting impressionist florals and this one was no exception.

Although each rose was painted with her own distinct personality, the center rose stands center and foremost, among her more colorful friends. They are all flamboyant and showing off; they are in their prime although their petals are starting to drop.

But these roses will never wilt to nothing. They were captured in a moment of time, for the viewer to enjoy forever!

I hope you enjoyed these lovelies. Please email me at maryannejacobsen@aol.com, if you would like price and purchase information.
