CHERRY BLOSSOMS

This week was a very busy week.  I usually just do work in the studio, unwilling to go anywhere.  However, appointments have to be kept, errands have to be made and the worse part for me is that I don't own my time meaning I function on other people's schedule.  We all know what that's like.  So, I decided to do everything in one fell swoop, but again, mistakes made, follow ups and returns happen.  I am hoping to get a good full week upcoming. 

This painting was commissioned with a request of teal and pink cherry blossoms.  I made a decision to incorporate texture to make it interesting since flower paintings, I find, are a little mundane.  But to each its own.  In doing so, I had to interject my style in mixed media using rich medium bold color but casted a sheen to counteract the boldness.  Here is the result.
