It's luscious! The reds are deep and wonderful. Happy happy holidays to you and your's!
LOVE your composition aas well as the overall painting so far. Merry Christmas.
Love your Christmasy flowers. The banner of my poppy is only a part of a painting, like you I couldn't really do what I wanted so just put part of it. Glad you like it and Merry Christmas ..
I go to sleep counting my blessings.
Gorgeous reds, and you've articulated the center of the flower perfectly; "mixed media" suits you!
Happy holidays!
Merry Christmas Cathy!
This is beautiful - ohhh I just love red! And I love the compositon of it. I tried and tried to do poinsettias, but just couldn't get them right...maybe I'll come back to it and it'll have to be next year's Christmas card. :)
When you make it to Cape May,, we'll have to paint together! :-)
Have loved all your warm red flower posts at this time of the year.
Glad you found my YUPO Magic Pond of such interest - good luck with your playing. It really can be such a lot of fun - and very messy!!
Happy New Year!!
I am sorry you've been sick, Cathy. I hope you will be 100% well when you go back to school Monday.
Happy New Year!
Too late for Christmas but I can still wish you a Happy New Year!!
