Yes, much less strenuous! And possibly the only way on God's green earth to make everything bloom at once.
This is my first commission in a long while: an entirely different experience from following the pigments of one's own imagination. So I took a while to develop the right approach, and finally was pleased with the storybook quality that emerged. Funny how flowers are always bigger in memory and imagination...
This is one of the most appreciated paintings I've done: this house and garden was sold/renovated/relocated and held far too many fond memories to go uncommemorated.
