Do Over Indeed

Had fun with this. Painted the flower details last. Said a prayer I wouldn’t botch it.

I see a few changes I would like to make. The shadow on the vase dissipated more than I had hoped. Need to fill that in a bit so it does not look like an outline. And the bottom right corner is a little wonky. Maybe deepen the negative space between the flowers. Not major issues, and I am happy with how it turned out.

Happy Sunday to you!

Two Out Of Three…

Two out of three ain’t bad. Well, in this case, two out of three are bad. But there was joy in the creating. Learning in there as well. Good paper makes all the difference!

Trying for loose here. Kept on going all the way to messy and slightly muddy. Tried again, and Pink Tulips (above) was born.
