Iris Flower Painting


The students want to paint an iris for their class in August. I painted this on an 18"x24" canvas that is ready to hang. The students have set for their painting lesson goal is to learn how to make "frilly froo froo" flower petals. The day was spent trying to figure out how to communicate "frilly froo-froo" onto the canvas for them. Guys to understand froo-froo think of lace or freshly clipped poodle.

  2. @Keads - I guess this means you won't get yourself a giant white poodle named Twisted Sister as a personal protection dog.
