Sunday Sketches

I broke the cardinal rule of composition; placing the subject matter in the center of the painting.

BUT, this showy Iris deserved center stage and I did it!


Rebellious, aren't I :)

    hee hee You? Rebellious? Nahhhhh. hahaha

    Your Iris is lovely. Truly amazed at the colour/technique of your stem. Amazing. You know, it was you who inspired me to step out of my creative zone this week. Hugs

    What's wrong with putting this beautiful flower in the center? That's what I would have done. And I love the way colors flow and melt into each other here.

    I think the composition is wonderful and love the soft lavender color against the darker purple!
