Safflower Daily Painting still life



Here's another version of a safflower. I really like the color harmony on this one and am pretty pleased with the results.
I went out today with intentions of painting outdoors. After having only two non rainy days this month you have to take advantage. While I did enjoy the day and really did paint, you will never see the results. I wiped it 4 times with nothing to show! It amazes me how I can produce one so effortlessly one day and the next it is like I have never picked up a brush before. I guess that tree was not in the cards! At least not today. What can you do?
