Red Irises in oil

24x18 palette knife oil using Winsor Newton Artisan watersoluble paints on gessoed board.  From a drawing I did from life of a purple iris I changed into red; this image shows a bit pink as it is more red actually.  Background is imaginary with various shades of blues, white, and lemon yellow.
