Angie Reed Garner - orchids #2

01:23 pm: orchids #2
Frustrated at how it shows on the computer screen, so here is
a detail which works better-- whole painting is behind the cut.

Increasingly thinking the other one may not be done. I like it when I drop
everything and stare at it, but otherwise it is a bit hard to live with.
Both want big gold frames. No, bigger.

The contour drawings take me forever, I must enjoy getting picky.

Computer screen is always a far cry from seeing a work in person. I'm sure this piece just GLOWS face to face. I love how it turned out and have always really admired your use of this almost "simple" black on white treatment. Stunning!

I like the parts but not the whole! Have set both to the side for now.

I wish we could have had these in last month's Flower of the Month: Orchids show. Even unfinished, they are striking!

Thank you... I'm a little frustrated with them because I don't know what I want. :)

I can't even begin to imagine how awesome this looks in person, because I think it looks amazing here! Just gorgeous!

I can't figure out what I WANT it to look like. Someone should hide my paintbrushes until I know what I'm doing. <3
