Today was spent painting and pondering. I thought i was close to being done but then when i walked into the studio this morning, i thought the painting looked boring. I added several layers of blue and green to give it a little punch.
I am amazed how different the painting looks from a distance and even when viewed not from directly in front but from the side.
The weather was strange, kind of balmy like i was in the tropics. When i went into the garden, i noticed the exquisite colors of the white brugmansia flower. While i am painting without reference, i think i will be inspired by the delicate colors of this flower in a future painting.
Note: i went by Sinopia to gaze at the pigments to find that it no longer is there! It is completely empty and there is no sign explaining what happened. BooHoo!
