Folla
11 May 2026
Acrylic on canvas
20 x 16 in (50.8 x 40.6 cm)
Another lighter, brighter painting. This followed Contraire but has a different look. I used different flowers, added much many more flowers to the foreground, and tamed the sky. The sky was similar to Contraire, but the brightness seemed to be drowning out the flowers. As you can see in the gif below, I didn't really have a solid plan for the flower on the right. I liked the final shape of the petals, but the color might be debatable. It focuses on two flowers so I was going down that road for a title...deux, pair, zwei, etc. However, the crowd of other flowers are marveling at the height of the two, but also added a nice setting. Folla is Italian for crowd - and happens to sound like flora and/or flowers.
This gif covers about three days with some interruptions.
