I appreciate that, Sno - thanks. That magenta is working so well. I don’t have that color … yet.

Tip: Just never use white to make highlights on any reds.

 

[snoball]

Gettin' there, slowly but surely!

Beautiful

Great tip…I do like black with red though

Superb job.

Thank you, Wayne. Also Burnt Umber and Pthalo or Ultramarine blue makes a great black that is not as dead as black from the tube.

 

[Enyaw]

Thank you Sno. Agree, made blacks are much better.

OK, I'm through piddling with this one. . . . . . for now. I'm going to work on the other one for a while and will no doubt pick at this one some more. I am never finished with a painting; I just quit working on it. You know, always trying for that elusive masterpiece. The colors are not true by a long shot. I may try my regular camera when I am finished with both of them or even scan them.

It's beautiful!

It's beautiful!

Thanks, TK. Just wish I could get the color to show true.

That looks plenty done to me - and it’s really beautiful! I can’t believe the water droplets and how much they add to the life-like look. I’m sure this just glows in person and we all know how hard it is to get the colors right in photos.

 

[Jade]

Wow gorgeous

Thank you, Donna! Yes, the camera always lies but I would love to show the deep rich reds of these roses, it changes the look completely.

Thank you, Jade!

Just send it to enyaw@home and I’ll tell them all how beautiful the reds are.

Thanks for the offer, but don't you want to wait on the other one?

 

[Enyaw]

don't you want to wait on the other one?

.. no, no, no. That would be greed! Lovely work Sno.

 

[Jade]

.. no, no, no. That would be greed! Lovely work Sno.

I'll take the other one

 

[snoball]

.. no, no, no. That would be greed! Lovely work Sno.

Thanks, Wayne, and of course we don't want you to come off as greedy.

I'll take the other one

But it may turn out a mess.
