As I paint the cactus rose, its beauty is starting to pop out from the paper. Deviating from standard procedure, I cheated by adding my dark colors to the central blossom, causing it to "pop," before I had finished laying down the lighter colors throughout.
I love to do what the painting asks me to do. It's like an intimate conversation, or a dance. A little bit of tango thrown in early in the lesson keeps me dancing.
