Ballare Contemporary Abstract in Red #4

Contemporary Abstract Painting in red, by Dawn O'Connell-Forte

Early Morning Rose

I can't resist putting flowers in glass vases, looking through the glass and water makes for great abstract paintings.  Painting abstract takes the same amount of concentration as realistic painting. 

Trader Joe Flowers

Love looking through the flowers at Trader Joes.  When you put them into a little oil painting the flowers never die. 

Summer Flowers

I like to paint a variety of subjects so I often switch from still life to landscape then to the human figure.  It is good to keep your skills adept to change,  it also keeps your mind sharp.    

Spring Fever 2

Looking forward to buds blooming!
