Kaleidoscope – 30 x 60 – Acrylic on Wood – Reserved for Mayberry Fine Art
Ooh I’m at the top! The warm sun has really made a difference here. Lots more oranges and yellows – there’s more energy up here too. 
Things are much quieter on the forest floor…

Love the flow from cool to warm and all that swirling energy. How you create these fractured compositions that read as whole units still confounds my thinking.
Wow. It looks awesome. Plus, this one developed so fast. I missed several weeks of updates and you are almost done!
Thanks Margaret! I think the trick is to not think about it
(At least that’s what I try to do!)
Thanks Diana! I took some vacation from work and painted this one full-time. It went a lot faster and was so much fun!
WOW! I’m gonna go and see it when mayberry has it for sure!
Thanks Dara! It’s actually already there – I’m one blog post behind.
(And thanks for buying that first painting!) 
i love this painting! when u can see a bit of the drawing before u painted it, it looks very hard to do and takes alot of time!!!! and then when u paint it the drawing just comes to life with color and line ….i love it!!!!
Thanks Cailin!
