Moving onto my next painting I kept in my mind to have the rose as a solid form this time round. So, painting from observation, I started with the black paint and added the white after and then adding the drips at the end to create the effect of melting/fading away. Life passing us by - fading away. I think this one was a lot more successful then the last - very bold and aesthetically appealing. I think it portrays my message a lot clearer, eventually all living things will die, its inevitable, which is why I like that it looks like its melting. However next time I'd like to add more detail just to see how it looks.
