The Angel of the Irises Painting.
I did this painting on a beautiful spring day. Inspired by an angel surrounded by purple irises, sweet hopes of warm days to come!
Instructions:
- Start by drawing the angel and irises.
- In this painting is easer to do the under-paint and background with acrylics because they dry faster. The acrylic colors are: Titanium White, Gold, Cadmium Yellow Light, Cadmium Yellow Medium and Cadmium Orange. Click the images to view a large painting >>
- Next paint angel, irises and leaves. You can do it with oil paintings or acrylics.
- Sign your work of art.

Acrylics: There are many brands of acrylic paintings that I have tested but the one that I like the most is: SOHO, Urban Artistic Acrylic: Excellent paintings, sold at more reasonable price by Jerry’s Arterama. 3060 Wake Forest Road, Raleigh, NC 27609. (919) 876-6610.
