Whisper Irises Revised - SOLD

Whisper Irises Revised
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 12" x 12"
SOLD at $50 plus $7 shipping

I decided that (listening to my collectors silences) maybe the yellow background on this one wasn't working.
I wanted to give it another chance with a darker colored background, so revised it today after class. Better?

  1. Hi Nel, that new background really works beautifully. Sometimes that's all it takes.

  2. Nel, I don't remember the previous background, but this one looks stunning. Maybe it is the grayishness against the clearer colors, or maybe it is perfect placement of darks behind lights and lights behind darks. Reminds me of the way Oriana Kacicek handles her backgrounds.
