Another piece that I have been playing on is about complete. When last I showed her to you she looked something like this…
I really liked some aspects of the painting but knew it needed something to ground it, and then this happened…
Yep. Sometimes I am just one tiny step/idea away from getting everything to fall into place. I decided to simplify the ground which I found to be distracting.
And with this color change, I think the only addition will be my signature on the bottom.
The yellow apparently is too intense for my camera to capture the texture detail (and I got tired of trying) so here is a close up.
I am SO happy that all the paintings that have stacked up are starting to get finished! Now where to show next?
