Didn't this one turn out nicely?
I like how the white pops against the dark colors, even though there really isn't much white left here.

I decided that since there was so much color already in this one, that I would leave the background as the white paper. Fun to use the oranges, pinks, and mauve's together.

Oh, I'm happy with this one. I took a lot of time, and went gently with the glazing.
I wanted a lighter iris this time around. I was a little worried about using the yellow and blue in the forward petal (yikes, green) but with the addition of the lavender, it worked out okay.

Stand of Pines - SOLD

Stand of Pines
Oil on Gessoed Watercolor Paper, 11.5" x 15.5"
SOLD at $12 plus $10 shipping.

This one is experimental, an oil done on watercolor paper.
I Gessoed the watercolor paper first, and it was good to paint on, not too absorbent, with a bit of texture still remaining, so I'm guessing that it will be okay, but I'm not sure how archival it might be. I'm pricing it as materials plus shipping.
