I know this looks a little Victorian, but I am pleased with it anyway. I used watercolour, oil pastels, salt and acrylic ink, and had fun doing this. It is based on some primroses I found and photographed growing in our garden.

Very recognizable as primroses Brent. A very sweet, delicate picture. I'm glad you enjoyed painting it. How are you feeling these days? Is your pain under control?

Hi Chrys. After a few months on morphine, and a bout of radiotherapy, my pain is now gone. I am so relieved, Life felt miserable while it was there. Getting off the morphine was a challenge, though, with much nausea, vomiting, dizziness and other goodies. Thank you for remembering and asking. I am most touched.
🌞🌈🌝🌻 I really am delighted to here this Brent. Hopefully better weather will also help. Cx
Beautiful, 👍😊
I'm glad to hear that the pain you were experiencing has subsided. I really like your painting. Thnxs for sharing
I like the texture here on the grey/teal background and the ridges on the leaves. How did you do that background?? 🌿.
Hi Opportunity, I put down washes of indigo, indigo + Prussian blue, and indigo + Alizarin Crimson, doing my best to get the washes to merge where they met, and then sprinkled the drying washes with some salt from a grinder bought from Aldi. I am not sure how much credit Aldi will take, but they grinder is marvellous!
Haha!! I love it!!👍🏼🌈

Don't ever give up painting . My eye went straight to the flowers . So clever as the colour was so bright but realistic and they really stood out . Does painting help you at all with pain ?
I didn't find painting to be of any use against my pain, Focused. I have never known pain like that. I hope I never do again.
There is a level of pain where nothing distracts and it hasn't happened to me often . I have only learned about distraction techniques used for children during a module of study. We know very little about it apart from research which tends to be strong drugs that can have affects different ways . I was interested in this as a student but found very little info or current projects .
I think they look elegant! I love the colorsand texture. I'm so glad you're feeling better.
