It was really meant to be playful (TY Ronell :) ) <BR/><BR/>I've been trying to resist going back to it and knocking off some of the rough aspects. I know the values are not good, way too many in the same range. But I am trying to free myself up just to make sketches sometimes and move on.<BR/><BR/>So now I'm taking aspects of both these images into a watercolour.Robyn Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01663604160297996421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14082946.post-36073003008416438732008-01-18T16:22:00.000+01:002008-01-18T16:22:00.000+01:00what a great little corner with perfect natural li...what a great little corner with perfect natural light.<BR/>and I love your still life with the vibrant gloves joining the oranges1 ou can feel great about this one, it's every bit a playful as you intended.<BR/>RonellAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14082946.post-70246158973084260082008-01-17T00:59:00.000+01:002008-01-17T00:59:00.000+01:00Wonderful!
