Day 24 - Flower Tower

                                          Acrylic on board 15cm x 15cm (6" x 6")

This took me three and a half hours to paint today. My longest so far in the challenge. The colours have come up a little less subtle in the photo. I painted from life today.

    1. Thanks Nancy! It helps that the board is so small! Also I have painted the green cup quite a few times now and am getting to know the shortcuts!

    1. Thanks Jane! I should have spent a little longer on it really. When I look at it now I can see where it needs more work.
