I was struck by the composition. All the white space really highlights the light-ness, all the highlights on the glass, really makes the (strong) lighting a player in the painting. I like it!Wendeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12309670181942769454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22095299.post-53773829294762781432008-07-19T02:02:00.000-07:002008-07-19T02:02:00.000-07:00thanks for the great comments.

She mentioned some of her favorite colors and so I had to try them. She uses lots of transparent colors and mixes warms and cools of same colors. I used WN Scarlet Lake, Brown madder, Cobalt blue and new gamboge. Sennelier Quinacridone Red orange and Holbein Naples yellow, Gamboge Nova, Mineral violet. She lets the paints mix on the paper, the colors stay much cleaner and clearer. I am still playing. One color she uses alot is Holbein Verditer Blue,it was backordered so I am still waiting. I would like to know what everyone thinks of the compostition. I have gotten alot of comments, it seems its a love or hate reaction so far.Desiree's Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01047772987859831429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22095299.post-2093835456979027062008-07-19T00:22:00.000-07:002008-07-19T00:22:00.000-07:00This is fantastic - what beautiful glass and refle...This is fantastic - what beautiful glass and reflections!
