Greetings Dear Art Appreciators;
.
Hope everyone is well.
'Last Red Rose of the Season' paintings are based on the delightful red David Austin rose, 'Munstead Wood '.
This rose was a splendid model in the painting of three rather large Christ-mas cards.
The 'bird' in the first painting (do you see him...loosely rendered in the right hand corner) was not anticipated....as a result a second painting was quickly in the works to see if a bird could be developed and integrated into the flower....and then painted one more time....resulting in three completed paintings, each a little different and yet their own painting.
Let this post be my Christ-mas card to Hive this year. ----Thank you for your participation in the comments here at Bleujay's, dialoguing with regard to the Principles/Timeless Truths....I could not ask for more...thank you!
.
Here's wishing you and yours a 'Happy Christ-mas' celebrating God's gift to mankind.
'For unto you is born this day in the city of David....a Saviour who is Christ the Lord' Luke 2.11
'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved.' Acts 16.31
It is faith alone in Christ alone for salvation.

Beautiful work! It definitely has a very Christmasy vibe to it. Well done.
I do see the bird figure in the first painting. It's neat when that happens.

I do enjoy art so I wish I could create decent pieces like yourself, especially if I could paint or draw but I think it's just not my skill 😂
Thank you again my Friend! I hope your day is lovely!
Wishing you the best of the season, @bleujay!
Greetings @novacadian ,
Appreciate you dropping by with your good wishes....Wishing you the same. ^__^
Kind Regards, Bleujay
As I watched I saw what you said, at the beginning there is no bird, then you shape it, it is like creating a real work based on something abstract, very beautiful.
I wish you a happy day

Thank you so much for my Christmas card, it's wonderful, ha ha! The watercolour painting is glorious, crammed with festive red and green, with a robin added in for good measure. I'm pleased you persevered with it the final result is absolutely fantastic.
It's great you have included that photo of a stunning looking rose that has given you such inspiration for your watercolour painting. What a delightful looking flower and I can see exactly how it has inspired.
Are we wishing people Happy Christmas already? Blimey! Well I hope you have a wonderful Christmas @bleujay - Merry Christmas to you, your family and your friends!

You are much welcome! Many thanks for your kind wishes as well. ;)
Greetings @bleujay!
You have given the world a wonderful Christmas card.
The connection with Christmas is direct, because Jesus Christ is compared to a rose trampled into the mud, as sung in one of my favorite Christian hymns.
Probably this red bird, born from a rose petal, symbolizes that the withering of roses is only a short period of time before their new blossoming, because migratory birds return from warm lands in the spring :)
Have a blessed day!
Oh, I forgot to say that watercolors in your hands work wonders!

Greetings @numa26 ,
Thank you for writing so kindly about my artworks. ^__^
Lovely to hear of your choice of Art as a subject to learn more about.
To answer to your query of advise for a new Art student.
If one desires to become an artist....
*They need the three D's; Desire, Determination, Dedication.
*They need an instructor....(so happy to hear you have one....choose one that paints similiar to the style, you desire to learn.)
*They need to practice everyday.
Best Practice: is to use your own reference material...subject matter which you photographed yourself.
Hope this assists in this new journey for you.
Principle: It's an elephant, one bite at a time.
Happy Christ-mas to you and yours, Bleujay
Oye, @bleujay, gracias por tus recomendaciones. Te cuento que hoy, culminé mi primer paisaje. Y la verdad es que no quedó tan mal, para ser la primera vez. Te confieso que no es fácil, pero me divertí mucho haciéndolo y tratando de imitar los detalles, aunque no se parezca mucho al original. Gracias, amigo, Sabrás de mí, pues voy a hacer mi post e historia de esa primera pintura, y me gustaría conocer tu valiosa opinión al respecto.
