Whilst I'm not disappointed with this painting, it's hardly the high water mark.

I considered painting multiple flowers, but thought it best to take one dahlia at a time.

This is a copy of a Percy Leason self portrait -- from the collection of the Castlemaine Art Museum -- that I painted as a class exercise. It was cut into eight sections, with students given the task of painting one section each, upside down, in an effort to disguise the final picture. At the end of class, each section was brought together to form the whole.
You could say this gave the picture a new Leason life.
