Well, after being ill for about a week, all my flowers had withered away on my previous still life and no more were growing outside to replace them so I thought I would start a fresh painting. I forgot to take a photo of the first stage of the painting, but I spent time drawing out the composition on paper first and then transferred it onto canvas. I then used a wipeout technique for the underpainting, let that dry overnight and started the first pass of colour the following day.
