This is a new colour palette for my leafy series, and it did not start out this way. This one really morphed on me. It's not really close to what the initial plan was when I started out. In the end, after some pretty drastic changes, it arrived at a place that makes me happy. It is much more green than it was ever intended to be, but once I came to terms with the fact that the blues and purples in the original design were not working, the commitment to the green solved all the problems.
Did you know painting is about problem solving?
'Tis true. Obviously it is about a whole lot more, but problem solving is right up there.

Beautiful painting. It's true. First there is a vision of what you want to paint,
and then the process which can change everything. You are so right!

You are good with words, Barbara! And yes, the process can change everything.
