Re-creating floral fine art takes time because a painting has to be created first. The inspiration for the painting is crucial. My desire to create must very strong and endure the test of time so I want to paint the original and then re-create the art. It’s very exciting to know I have the opportunity to offer fine art to others at a lesser cost.

With only one original I digitally scan the original then using the finest materials for this “Hidden Beauty” re-creation you see here. Sometimes I hand embellish a re-creation with the original painting right next to me. Embellishing is the closest to the real painting. The beauty of my hand embellishments brings the feelings of third dimension. Re-creating floral fine art takes time since you can only slowly and meticulously add embellishments and then allow them to dry.

Re-creating floral fine art takes time especially when Hand Embellished. “Romancing the Rose” measuring 40″X 42″

The archival digital re-creation above, “Romancing the Rose” is a one of a kind work of art on canvas that is surrounded by a brown fillet that matches the wooden brown frame. The inner white linen sets off the romantic natural beauty of this work of art. It is a large piece great as a focal point for an important entrance, fireplace or seating area.

The meaning of flowers is universal emulating feeling such as Love, Passion, Happiness, Joy and the Memories we cherish. Flowers are a personal connection to the beauty of our world that also makes us feel beautiful.
These re-creations are the closest representation that captures the original.

Floral Wall Art are one of a kind hand painted fine art with layers of pastel, “Simply Beautiful”.

Floral wall art captures the real likeness of the original painting.

Every floral painting has a story. Besides the beauty of the art people want to know the story behind the art including the artist’s thoughts and creative process.

For the painting “Simply Beautiful”, I gathered what I thought were the special flowers from a bouquet. Then gently I tossed the flowers into a wide mouth vase until they gave the subtle yet powerful natural organic arrangement I wanted to paint. The softness of the petals along with the bold colors all pulled together to expressed to me a painting of harmonious beautiful floral art. Choosing a background I felt would blend with all the flowers letting each explode with their own beauty. Preparing everything before painting is essential. It is not until the original painting is finished that I can prepare for the highly technical digital process.

Creating Nature’s Beautiful Flowers starts with painting a white rose.

Creating nature’s beautiful flowers brings nature to our doorstep. Beauty for the sake of Beauty. Although unfinished, “Simply Beautiful” was posted on Facebook and LinkedIn. Allowing time between posting L.A. CLINE painted flowers to periodically update the painting.

Showing an audience unfinished art became a big decision. Realizing people really liked seeing paintings being created I posted starting with one white center rose in the center of the painting. At this point, I have already worked on the sketch and the rose for a month. I try to post updates weekly or every ten days, adding a new flowers. Creating more flowers required building layers of pastel to match areas already painted.

It was an adventure creating nature’s beautiful flowers.  I did not expect the overwhelming reaction to the post.  All the likes, comments, hearts, wows are so inspiring I no longer feel alone in my studio. In fact, I notice names that I recognize from earlier posts which is wonderful and seeing the new names is great!

Next step, looking for the ultimate frame. The frame will be custom build and custom stained so I have to do my homework and choose something that will ultimately surround this extraordinary painting. By ordering the frame now, I will finish the painting in time for the frame to be should be built.

I will continue to post updates on Facebook and LinkedIn until I finish this painting. Since there is only one original, my favorite thing is to create matching archival digital re-creations. Click here, view gallery on-line

Beautiful Inspirations Red Hibiscus

Beautiful inspirations of flowers captures my soul to paint. To be inspired is something that comes naturally and cannot be rushed. The inspiration is all important for a painting because it has to endure the test of time, hold my attention to become a master piece.

Flowers are beautiful inspirations representing, beauty Love, passion, celebration, peace, and memories are all a part of the way we see flowers. Flowers give meaning and beauty to our lives.

For the last fifteen years I have been creating a gallery of my floral paintings https://laclinefineart.com/galleries/ . Each of my Floral pastel paintings take me months to create because of the way I layer the pastel. I work in various light conditions during the day and evening so the light peers through the 15 to 20 layers of pastel. Working with pastel is a challenge. I am so in love with pastel and the way it looks and presents itself that I continue to express and discover exciting ways to work with the pastel colors. In this fast paced world I slow down and become one with the flowers and enjoy combining the colors of each stick of pastel against the heavy cotton acid-free paper I use.

Since there is only one original, it becomes very important that I able to show my beautiful inspirations by bring able to create archival digital re-creations of my original. I hand embellish the Re-creation with the original painting right next to me. I use pastel sometimes adding acrylic and oil to create another texture. It feels like I am creating the original all over again only now it is a unique re-creation. These Re-creations capture the original painting and are a wonderful way to have a unique piece of Floral art that is a one of a kind work of art.https://laclinefineart.com/

New Sketch in the making

I am now creating a new sketch that will eventually be a large vertical Pastel Painting. So far I have been working on this sketch for two weeks now.  This new Floral painting will have a white rose, white daisies and small white trumpet flowers as the featured spotlight grouping.

The upper right section of the painting where the overlapping white daisy petals will be against the light background is where I begin drawing today. This white on white area is very difficult to draw and paint. There has to be subtle shading to distinguish between the forms and the background. However, once thought out and drawn in, the transparencies in this painting are going to be beautiful.

I figure another week to draw all the details in the sketch for this painting. Then I transfer this sketch to heavy acid-free water color paper that will be mounted on acid free foam core as my working surface for my Pastel Painting.

Finally, I can begin painting. To spend this much time on a painting my inspiration has to be a very strong one.   The inspiration for this painting was the natural arrangement I created that I could not look away from.  The way the flowers twist and turned left me breathless with the loveliness of these living beauties.  Now they will live on with all their majesty in my painting. But, do expect to see this large piece finished before four months for the layering of the pastel takes time to achieve the forever beauty that I feel.

I will periodically update with this blog with pictures of this new painting as it progresses.  I have been working on paintings in my Floral Collection for over ten years and my newest Pastel Painting is “Romancing the Rose” seen here is all it’s glory. To view the other very special Floral paintings and Unique Enhanced Giclee Paintings visit my website.

I wish I could paint faster but I guess it’s just not in the cards for me.

“Romancing the Rose” Pastel Painting by Artist, L.A. CLINE

Perfect Everlasting Flowers, “Flowers in Paradise”
Re-creation 

Perfect everlasting flowers  are dream paintings. Taking the beauty of nature and creating paintings that represent that incredible feeling of nature’s love is wonderful.

 “Flowers in Paradise” in the gold frame  may be your idea of love with Roses for your perfect everlasting flowers. Perhaps for Valentine’s Day or any special occasion. “Flowers of Paradise is reminiscent of the Venetian painters from centuries ago when darker colors where used to highlight the beautiful flowers. Here the gold leaf framing accentuates the whole composition.

The Red Rose is of course the flower of love. “Romancing the Rose” is an exquisite example of a re-creation that your special someone will never forget. This happy festive re-creation is certainly a focal piece for any entrance hallway or over a fireplace. This re-creation is embellished with three mediums, oil pastel and acrylic to enhance the lush rose and the perfect everlasting flowers surrounding the red rose of love.

 “Hidden Beauty” with its ultra red Hybiscus and lush background would be your perfect everlasting flowers. This piece is a canvas re-creation that is embellished. In fact all three art pieces mentioned here are all embellished with either oil paint, pastel or acrylic or all three. I slowly with small brushed touch certain areas to give a more three dimension feel to each recreation.  Embellishing a re-creation that is closest art to the original painting.

Contact me with any questions you may have and celebrate you special days with the perfect everlasting flower bouquet! I look forward to hearing from you! L.A. CLINE

Romancing Red Rose Love shows how important is it to protect love.  “Romancing the Rose” pastel painting is a beautiful rendition of romancing red rose of love. The all important rose is protected. This painting encompasses the important of what this one flower tells us of love.

After five months of planning, sketching, creating and painting I can finally show you my Big Reveal! “Romancing the Rose” a 32” X 34” Pastel Painting that expresses the beauty of our world close up with feelings of romancing red rose love. When you look closely at the painting you the rose is guarded keeping it safe and secure. It still amazes me that from all the chaos of the pastels on my easel shelf and all over my studio I still can create a wonderful painting filled with inspiration that entices you to stop and notice how we love romancing red rose love.

When I  began this painting I started painting the rose. I used many layers of pastel on the original to build the sumptuous colors. For the re-creation I used three mediums to capture the same feeling of the original. I also embellished the re-creation with the original next to me while applying the layers of embellishment.

Romancing red rose love is something we all should consider thinking about. Roses means so very much to us and bringing them home or owning a painting that is everlasting will bring bring great joy  to your life. Nature close up and personal both inside and outside your residence is pure happiness. Take what this world offers and smell the roses.  Love is all we need.

I painted this very complicated yet wonderful painting and I am delighted to have the opportunity to present this art to you. This was an Anniversary gift from my husband now I have my Romancing Red Rose Love.
