Indian Paintbrush Acrylic Painting

I finished painting an Indian Paintbrush yesterday on a 20x16 inch gallery wrapped canvas with edges painted.  The work is in acrylics in which I worked most of the blending wet.  Acrylics have a great advantage with bright color and fast drying, but don't let it set long in your brushes.  This painting is a sequel to go with the Blue Bonnet I painted earlier this year.  There are many species of the paintbrush and sometimes referred to as prairie fire as the fields are brightly lit up with thousands of these beautiful flowers.  They also like to mingle with the other wildflowers for more beautiful landscapes than one can imagine.


Happy Thanksgiving to All,
