Peony on Yellow by Cathy McIntire

"Peony on Yellow" 24"x24" oil with Resin coating, $900
Cathy McIntire Blog
This painting was reworked from its original version. Colors were modified, the composition was strengthened a bit, and texture added with more paint application. My painting roots are traditional, but I keep pushing my creative envelope to produce work that shows more artistic license, more interpretation, and more painting decisions made "in the moment."

The painting has been varnished with epoxy resin, the equivalent of 50 coats of traditional varnish. The result is a glass-like finish that is very clear and shows every brushstroke, enhances the color, and makes the painting look like it was just painted.

    Thanks Terri. I appreciate the feedback! And yes, the resin adds a whole new dimension to a painting.
