Roses in Art - Heal, Nourish and Indulge

As an artist as well as a writer, I can say without a doubt that there are many misconceptions about art

. In my search for a rose-artist, I found Gina De Gorna. Her art techniques, styles and paintings of roses in oil were the subjects I found exceptional. Whether painting a single rose or a bouquet of roses, she captures in vivid detail this beautiful flower.Not all of us have a sense of color or even proportion - but everyone can learn how to 'use' them. The secret is in learning how to "feel" what the artist is actually "saying" to you from his or her painting.Each artist may paint the same object in a different manner; it is only because those objects must first become an image in the mind of the artist before it is then translated to a corresponding image on the canvas. The final image painted on canvas could appear to be nothing like the image as seen by human eyes. But to both the artist and the connoisseur, the images are very real. There are no two roses exactly alike, and if you study the old Masters you will find many interpretations of our rose.But for the lack of confidence in one's ability to reproduce various shapes or forms, say of a rose, ordinary people might overcome the biggest obstacle a person has to ever draw, paint or sculpt one. Gina paints in oil, acrylic and a variety of limited edition Giclee reproductions, cards and prints.Much has been said about the 'balance of an artwork not affecting reality'... for the purpose of balance and a pleasant composition, artists often make their version of reality; this may mean your own version of that rose garden, or even a single rose.Artists, therefore, do not copy exactly everything they see from a photo or nature. They freely change, omit or add elements of a scene, shapes, colors or interesting textures. This is called "artist's license", and please, do use it.Do not be afraid to alter what appears to be reality. One person's reality is not always another's. Before attempting to paint a rose, a bouquet of roses or even an entire setting of a rose garden, you must first stare at the object of your thoughts. Then, allow your mind to wander and envision the endless colors that will appear before you. It does take a bit of practice, but in the end, you will learn how to focus on your own reality of the image or images you wish to place on your canvas.If you are a rose lover, you may want to have a few pieces of rose art in your home. Perhaps as you hold a lovely rose in your hand, you might be tempted to capture its beauty on paper or canvas yourself. You have nothing to lose and a huge sense of accomplishment if you win. Indulge!
