Solitaire – 20 x 20 – Acrylic on Panel – Reserved for Mayberry

Done! :) The white flower basks on the dark leaves; the sunlight traces paths along the petals. Colour spills from the centre, reaching out to influence the rest of the flower. Way too much fun – I will have to do some more florals soon. (Maybe right after I do a painting for a local show entry and a commission.) :)

    I worked out your logic: Don’t copy exactly, that’s for photographers and illustrators. Have fun, do what you want! Am I right? I use that simple logic too. :) Keep it up!

    You have it exactly right! I can’t even copy my sketch. :) Once I get it on the panel, I just let it go where it wants. And that’s my favourite part. :)

    :) Yeah, it’s great fun – and I like not knowing where I’ll end up!

    I showed a couple friends your work and they now go on your blog too. They were artists too, abstract ones.

    Thanks Ruhi! Do they have sites or blogs too?

  10. Ruhi Says:

    No not that I know of.
