This piece has been sitting since December in a state of helplessness, poor thing. It's an adaptation of a Terry Madden watercolor in terms of composition, but done in oil on a large canvas and trying to do justice to the yellow color of the hibiscus' in my Mom and Dad's yard (Terry's was pink). I have changed it so much and so many times, my head is swimming =) The background used to be light in a watercolor sort of fantasy look, then my teacher said "no, it needs to be dark". So now it's dark. Not sure I like it. And, I still have to correct the flowers for highlights and such, but - it's a work in progress. Maybe publishing it will really get me to think about it and get it done!!
