Painting Progress

When I paint, I like to stop and take a picture of the process. Many times I have an idea in my head about what the final product will look like, and every time, the finished result is anything but. My latest flower painting, is quite dramatic (and somewhat romantic). I used high contrast of dark purple and white to give off the affect of shadows. I was going to paint the flower in more orange-pink tones, and then went against it. Here's how it all worked out! ENJOY.
