"Green & Pink" --- SOLD



I used a different process for this one, and I'm not sure why. I painted everything but the flower at first, and did the flower last. Usually I work everything sort of together to get the edges the way I like. Halfway through I considered wiping it off and starting over, because the painting seemed so dark and so ... green. Maybe I was afraid of the flower. Imagine. :/ But then as soon as I finished the flower, the whole thing pulled together and balanced out.

I LOVE the colors in this one, especially the background green. Very nice.

Wow! It gave me chills when you said you almost wiped this one off! I LOVE it!

I got my supply lists yesterday (I've been out of town) and I am counting the days till Santa Fe.

Hi Carol,

I think it made the flower more dramatic that you did
it the way you described. It's like the emerald city
and then POW! Nice.
