Work in Progress: Edge of Summer (Continued...)

A little more work on the orchid painting, "Edge of Summer" today, continuing to experiment with color mingling, this time using more transparent colors with a long value range: Alizarin Crimson, Winsor Blue, Winsor Green and Winsor Violet. It is hard to control the exact shape using this method, but wet, juicy dark colors do have a life of their own, and time and time again forming beautiful fluid shapes...

(Most of my paintings will be standard sizes and fit easily into ready-made frames.)

Watercolors will be shipped with 3 business days of payment, while oils would have to have a waiting time of 5-10 days to allow the paint to dry. All paintings will be shipped with secure, water-proof packaging to avoid any possible damage to the painting.

About Return Policy: Buying art is a personal and subjective decision, and you are always invited to "try out" one of my paintings.
