i have painted many bouquets over the past years. Each time I start one I have every intention to paint exactly what I see but it never turns out that way.It is not because I don’t like what I see; it is just that the plan changes. Somehow I add a little more purple, move the yellow over to the right a little, etc. All the while I am consciously balancing the values, symmetry and contrast in the painting.
I am also reading your mind right now. You are thinking that you might not want to eat blueberry muffins made by me since I might change the recipe too much! I only change the rules in painting- you are safe to eat my muffins!
You have been wowed!!! Good work, changes are for
