Magenta Hollyhocks (redone)
This painting originally had a yellow background. I didn't feel comfortable with it (hated it actually), but due to a deadline, I stuck with it. It hung at the "Cafe This Way" for two months. I couldn't live with it so I finally went up and got it. Now that I have changed the background to the color I originally wanted, I'm happy with it. Gut instincts. Thank you "Magenta Hollyhocks" for reminding me to forget all the rules and to express myself freely. Lesson learned (AGAIN).

Well, it's a hard lesson to remember! Maybe we need it stamped across our hands : ) Yes, it's good you stuck with your gut because you created a harmonious, luscious painting. Did you ever finish your tree from a few posts back? I'd love to see it! Love your work.
