Thanks Wendy. I need to add those lime shadows and I am going to try to make a Witco-esque frame for it then I'll post a new picture (hopefully with some good lighting - daylight outside in the shade?) I'm going to enter it in the college art show - not because I think it's great but because they are begging for art :lol:

Started painting my 2 Birds of Paradise tonight. Decided to make the color shifted one a monochrome blue, kinda like moonlight. Just started the background and some color blocking tonight. I can already see I picked the wrong color for the background of the natural one - is should have been a dark rich green instead of a muddy green. Going to have trouble now getting enough contrast between the foreground and background :( I think they are going to end up looking like something you would see hanging on the walls on the set of The Golden Girls - 1980s Florida style :wink:
