Oh, did the colors come out different on paper than what you had in mind? My mom would love it. She likes flowers and butterflies  the things I have little patience for. LOL

It wasn't as polished as I was hoping. My original plan for that piece was to do it in oil. One of my friends, and I have a facebook club we joined for colored pencil and some of those artists create pieces that look photographic. Also I would have liked to have gotten some transparency to the petals and done a better job with the raindrops. But there you go. It's finished and it's not bad. Just doesn't blow my mind like I envisioned. Actually, I did have trouble getting just the apricot color, right. I probably wouldn't have with oil paints. But using colored pencil and layering the pencils to get the color........

Our next show at PAPA Gallery goes up in 2 weeks and I need to get it framed for that. I don't have anything else new ready for the show and will have to see among the slim pickings what I have that's old. You can rehang pieces, but the must have been OUT of the gallery for 6 months. I'll have to look to see what I have that meets that criteria. I'm not going to worry about it. I have a couple really old pieces (80's) that I suppose I could frame and put in. We'll see. Going to watch NCIS and work on my France scrapbook!

I know how you feel. All the art clubs I joined on FB have people that create stuff that is really neat. LOL, if only my minds' eye was capable of coming through my hands. I always have these grand pictures and ideas in my mind so when the art does not match up I get frustrated. Good luck with your gallery showing. Hey, maybe you could try out alcohol inks. They are easy to use and you would get some really unique and vividly colored pieces to show.

Yep, down right discouraging. I had hoped to get some of that effect, that I was seeing, with my Gilded, but didn't make it. Maybe next time.
