Rose Hips

These are the fruits of the rugosa rose, those are the roses you see growing at the seaside. My front perennial border is edged by a hedge of these. The "hips" are high in vitaminc C and make good tea and jelly. Just another small study....

ps...off to a Sovek workshop this week-end, will post results

Nice one here Jan. Good variation of greens. so simple looking but it wouldn't be for me.

Have fun with your refresher course.

Hi Jan.

...Lots of stuff for a 6"x 8".. I bet that it looks great in a frame.
Love the color shift in the background yellow greens to the green purples. A lovely backdrop for the "hip" colors. (IMHO)
Good luck with the workshop. Looking forward to the reports. I am sure it will be great.

Take care, Frank.

Thanks everyone..that rose foliage is dense and tangled and was a challenge to paint. Glad you all like it.
