Looking to this i can say and belive that less can sometimes speak a lot….fantabulous shades and mood portrayed…i wish one day i could paint like this..!!!!
JoBaby13 replied
thank you so much Shree; usually I question when a piece is “finished” and then tend to overwork it, but with this piece I knew when to stop lol… and did, so much sooner than I normally would have, and I just love the result….seems lots of others did too – much to my delight =)
