Finding the Right Red
Well I am getting closer. I am two days in and with any luck (silent plea to the painting gods)I will complete it tomorrow. Definitely the next day. And absolutely positively by the day after that. Guaranteed no later than this weekend.(Fingers crossed)
I am putting in the red tassels and the red coloring looks so strong and vibrant against my somewhat muted color palette. I started making it more pink and that just didn’t look right. (my husband concurred) So then I started making the highlights orange. Yikes! Not right either. So at the moment I have a strange (slightly revolting)little mixture of pink and orange going on. Not pretty, but it will have to wait until morning for better lightening before I try to fix it.
