The Notre Dame Rose Oil Painting

The conception of Notre Dame Rose started in the fall of 2007 at a bed and breakfast in the rural farmlands of Indiana.  I went up with my babe for a college football game between her cousin’s Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.  Our stay at the bed and breakfast was a neat experience with the unique décor and flower gardens surrounding. Notre Dame and South Bend are such unique places full of old charm that everyone should experience once in their lives.

Notre Dame Rose was a rose that stood out to me at the bed and breakfast with old rugged fence in the background. The texture of the old rough sawn boards was a treat to capture while I tried not to overemphasize them. I did not want to take away from the main character the light pink rose.

Thank you everyone for stopping by Boyd Greene Fine Art for a look at my newest rose oil painting.
