Daily Painting

Was working on this for a gift, but it is going in the log books as practice. I will have to try again. Hoping for loose, but I got lost in the details.  Here is the reference photo.

I was hoping to stay somewhat neutral with the surroundings, and let the flowers stand out. But my glazes got away from me. To be honest, I mucked it up about half way through. But I took a chance and tried to save it. And tried, and tried.

Some shadows are too dark, some are too light. I cropped it to see if that would help. Didn’t. But it is not a total loss. I had fun working on it.

So a daily painting it is..
