On the cork board
I clipped this one to the board yesterday. There are always more than could be done but then too much is the worst. I may darken a few areas for emphasis but this one is basically finished. I think I need a bit of shadow cast over the flowers, now that I see it on my computer monitor. And more form on the column. And a stronger shadow on the interior side of the door….
Being objective with something I’ve looked at for a week or two is sometimes tricky. And knowing when to stop is absolutely key. I’d rather stop too early than push the painting until it is boring and muddy.
This is a very simple composition - I wanted it clean and bright.
