I like the way it turned out but I think my success was a combination on bright colors in the subject matter and beginner's luck :lol: Up next is the monochrome "moonlight" bird of paradise. I finished early and had some class time left to kill, so I thought I would add a clouded moon. I'm not really sure it added to the picture. Need to do some more work on the clouds after this layer of paint is dry - I was starting to muddy it. I probably should have stuck with blues for the clouds instead of the greys, more in line with the monochrome effect. Nice thing is that I can paint over the clouds and try again on Tuesday.
