Hydrangea Arrangea

6×8″ oil paint on primed canvas sheet; use “comment” below to inquire.
At a dinner gathering, I took a picture of a centerpiece on one of the tables. Simple blooms of hydrangea were resting in a clear bowl of water with turquoise colored marbles, and then set on a shiny mirror. I wondered what would happen to the clarity of the elements if I used a painting knife. I think the scene went from crystal clarity to interesting.
