Post #300

wow, thats a lot of posts. This will be post 300... who knew I had so much to say? Wait a minute... let's be honest... we all knew I have a hard time keeping my mouth shut.

Painting in Progress: flower... from the Rookie Painter blog challenge. I look at this now and realize I needed to do more lights and whites for the flower in order to get the "glowy" vibrant colors. Soooo now I have to go back and paint white back in over the pink. the purple gave the white too cool of a tint, so hopefully this will help and it won't just be work/time wasted.

I love this! I know you said flowers were not 'your thing', but it's magnificent...beautiful realism...you should do more, I think they would be very popular.
