Had fun with this. So much, that I didn’t even think about the fact that I cut the painting in half.  I was going to add more vines. The colors refused to scan right. The background colors do get lighter, but not white. There are three blues in the background, but  the difference isn’t visible here. The swirly blooms are a mix of a flesh color, and a very soft pink. They are warmer than they look.

Just a bit of fun.

I worked a bit more on Day 25 as well. I went over the white lines, I think it helped a bit. Added pen as well.

      Soft and spicy, love that Carol, thank you 😉 I wasn’t sure if the changes were improvements. Great thing is I have digital copies of both 😉

    Sheila, these two paintings feel dreamlike, and I suddenly find myself thinking of when I first listened to the Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band … “somebody spoke and I went into a dream.” : )

      Ok, had to put it on and listen. So happy if these brought back happy memories for you Dotty 🙂 I suppose they do have a “Flower Power” feel, LOL. One more listen…

    You made “Hot Mess” even more vibrant! Love Day 26’s colors, arrangement, aesthetics. Those swirly blooms are roses for me. The vine, yes, does divide, but if this is a pattern on something, that creative vine would make wonderful sense.
