"Quirky" --- SOLD



Here's an odd little painting. I broke a cardinal rule of mine on this one: never make anything up. Well, I totally made up the color of this vase - it was pink in real life. But I just really liked the shape of it with the flower, and the shadow it made. And I had another green vase that I used as a color reference in the same light. So it was a fairly safe experiement. And I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. My husband's already gone to bed and my stepdaugther is off in her room with the door closed, so I had to come up with the title all by myself. : )

Hi Carol,
I love the shadow shapes in this painting. As well, the touches of pink throughout the painting really tie it all together. AND I like your title! (No need to wake up your husband. :-)

I like the title too Carol. I have looked at this one a few times today and each time the title seems to fit the painting even better.
This one has great balance to it.
