Wild roses grow here in groves and are covered in blooms

in the spring, They are also extremely thorny.

I used the palette of ultramarine blue and alizarin crimson that Julie Ford Oliver

provided on her blog. I like the concept of the colors

being related to each other. It gives the painting unity.
