Artist Comments
A woman sits contently on a green swing with tea and a bouquet of roses. Soft, dappled sunlight falls through the trees and warms the scene. Artist Sherri Aldawood says she posed her model, Alana, in her backyard on a lovely spring day. "This painting was such a joy to paint," exclaims Sherri. "I felt like I was reliving that beautiful day all over again!"
About the Artist
Sherri Aldawood didn't intend to always paint flowers, but over time her love of gardens started to permeate her art. She focuses on the light and color of the flowers on the canvas. Sherri prefers alla prima, working with wet layers of paint instead of letting them dry. She keeps the paint as wet as possible by using walnut and clove oil to extend the drying time.

This still-life painting depicts white roses arranged in a brass vase, with a pink one at the bottom. The earth-toned palette and thick bravura brushstrokes impart a timeless aura to the piece. Against the brown background, the elements stand out with their soft and endearing details.
