May 10th, 2014: Oil on Board, 6" x 6". These are some of the wild roses that grow around here, Champas is what the locals call them. The hips are still hanging on from last year, the green growth is just coming out. I only poked myself with the thorns a couple times arrange this little scene. I felt off my game painting this one because the greens and reds started to blend with the background colors, but I just gave up and let the paint do what it wanted. That red is some powerful stuff... it didn't want to wash off my brushes in the end either.
