Abstract Dry Flowers Series

Here is the eighth mixed media painting from my dry flowers series.

This was done on a 7 x 7 inch (17.78 x 17.78 cm) wood canvas.

I used acrylic paint on the canvas and while it was still wet I placed a few dry flower petals onto the paint. For this artwork I used rose petals, they were originally white but changed color after they dried. I made a kind of spiderweb pattern with the wet paint around the petals. When the paint was dry I used polyurethane to give it a glossy finish and protect the dry flower petals.

Here is a video of me creating this artwork :)
