"Heart of Fire"
Oil Painting by Barbara Teusink
An intense closeup of a red - orange dahlia.I love Dahlias. There is so very much variety in how they can look. The warmth, brilliant color and light in this one caught my eye. I just knew I wanted to paint it.
Original Oil on 16x16 flat gessobord panel.
Presented in a flat black frame.
