2006 – Learning about composition

This is Pink Plumeria before I whacked off 8 inches of it and made it square. It never was a very strong painting. Though I did have fun with color in the petals and learned about putting compliments in to create great darks. I used some of the quinacridone rose from the petals in the nooks and crannies of the leaves. It seemed to help. It’s still not one of my favorites.
