A "Journal of Paintings" by Jon Conkey,
Themeworks was a "one-year-long" record of my progress in the art of "oil painting", and an attempt to paint 365 paintings in one year. Changing the monthly theme allowed me to focus on subjects I may not have otherwise painted. As an artist, I was looking for discovery and breakthroughs in my works through this daily practice.

#14 Tulip in White Pitcher
Paint straight from the tube was bearly bright enough to capture the radiance of this flower due to the white vase. Flowers with their delicate form and texture are a tough subject to paint well, especially my nemesis, the sugar pumpkin flower. JLC
