Decisions, decisions


I have been plodding on with the foliage. It has taken me ages but at last I have got the effect that I wanted with the darker more dense foliage in the right hand section enhancing the lighter area to the middle left as you look at it on the screen.I am now trying to decide what colour to paint the glass in the feeder. I flit between an almost clear glass with just the petal feeder sections in red glass or more of a pinky red colour for all of the feeder. I suppose i'm just going to have to take the plunge and decide.

  1. The hummingbirds are fantastic and very sensitive, I think you have to choose a clear tone for the feeder so that the birds remain as the main interest of the painting, wonderful job with the leaves

  2. Thanks for your comment. I have chosen an almost clear glass but with just a hint of blue green to compliment the background.
