Day One Hundred-Ninety One

'Anniversary Rose'

8 x 8 oil on panel
100.00 + 4.00 s + h






I get a bouquet for my anniversary that gets bigger by one rose every year. This year I received 44 roses. They were various colors. I like this salmon or coral color the best. My hubby... what a guy !
I had a hard time painting it, though !
