Lilacs in a Round Vase

Lilacs in a Round Vase

12" x 16"
oil on canvas

I was trying to make this a painting about the feeling of lilacs and not exactly what I was looking at.

I used Mauve Blue Shade and Alizeran Crimson for the lilac flowers. Colors used in the rest of the painting- Veridian, Transparent Oxide Red, Cad Yellow Light, Cad Red, Cobalt Blue I guess a little Yellow Ocher.
