Forever Blue

I'm out of my comfort zone of earth tones with this one.  I had a terrible time trying to adjust the color.  My camera is not good at picking up mauve.  Some of the pinks are a little too vibrant, but you get the idea.

I hope you can see all the texture in the detail shot.  Once again, I used painted Viva paper towels for many of the petals.  I love how it looks like I cut up canvas and added it to the painting.

"Tucson"

 

This painting, with it's copper, turquoise, purple and sienna tones embodies the colors of the Southwest.  They are my favorite colors and they show up over and over again in my work.  Fortunately, for me, lots of other people collect art in these desert hues.

The detail above shows the cube forms made with acrylic medium.  I like lots of texture in my work and this painting begs to be touched.
I signed the painting on the back, but not on the front because it can be hung horizontally or vertically.
