It’s quite remarkable how that logical, symbol-oriented left brain freaks out about a lot of detail. I’m learning that the right brain has no problem with it. And even approximating it. Painting this is way easier than my left brain thought it was going to be.

Hard to tell from this photo, the color is so off. But finishing this one was about the tone. It was too reddish. And, I didn’t want to make it too blue. A thin wash of thalo green did the trick.

By the time I got to here, I was pretty done with the square thing. Great exploration. Will do it again.

Worked on Blossoms Squared on Kauai. Painting square by square completely abstracts the image. And painting mostly wet in wet was a challenge and a great experience. Nearly all the ladies in my painting group jumped in and painted them too.

At the place we rent in Koloa, painted on the covered front porch. Final touches on the hairs of the flower – then the BEE!

Using a new Daniel Smith color: cobalt blue-violet. Totally replaced Ultramarine Violet in my palette. I’m in love.
