To think they had to do these studies with the real model and whatever light they got atm!
I'm not complaining of reference pictures again! 🥲

Remembering what artists has to create art, compared to now, makes their pieces even more special to me.

These are pretty and have a wonderful immediacy about them.

I like how he painted them from different angles, really getting to know the subject.

Yes, that's true and would've been fun to do, posing the flowers in different ways. Wonder if he was able to use the same flower for all of them or if they wilted too fast?
