White Crysanthemums in oil

Finally, I've decided to try my hand in oil, and this is my first attempt. I've found it quite pleasant to work in this medium. I must do it again. I like its fluidity and a possibility to move paint around. It is a certain advantage over acrylics, where everything dries so fast. I did not quite work out how to do the fine detail yet, - and this is a very quick painting anyway, took me only a couple of hours. The chrysanthemums are from my garden. It is a very warm winter this year, and they've only now came into flower. Nice white touch in the absence of snow. :)
