As I work, I am continuing to balance the variety of "warm and cool" color along with considering value and color perspective as I define the forms and space: lighter values, intensity of color, and warmth appear forward; darker values and cool colors visually recede. I also enjoy the interplay of lost and found edges that contribute to the illusion of "real" and aid the viewer's eye to travel around the painting.

Another great foray into realism one puzzle piece at a time!
Ariel,
Unlike Bonnie, it is good to see a person take on reality "one garlic breath at a time". It's like Caroline Myss's title of her latest book, "Defy Gravity'. Reframe life and go beyond the present boundaries.

I love ,love ,love the warm and cool colors competing and completing your oh-so-tangible cloves. I can't wait to decorate our space for the holidays and bring some big talent-small art to our world.
Cheers and Primavera for our next adventure,
