This was an interesting experience, while working on this work for one did it in three parts. The back coloring, trying really hard to get the gradation smooth/easy to read. Then created the cone on the flower which looked nothing like what I thought it was going to but turned out better than I could have imagined. Lastly the petals while working on those I was working way to close and sitting there brooding about how they looked really wrong, that I was going to have to go back and redo the entire painting. Luckily was forced to take a step back and what a happy little surprise some how my work came together without my realizing.
Should have known all along, being forced to take a step back in other aspects of my life and evaluate.
