"Blue Mood Re-vamp" Painting By Donna Holdsworth

Before

After

This is a re-do of a painting a did a while back at the beginning of my "art career."  I gave it to my mother and she had it hanging in her spare room.  Gotta love Mom...it looked like a black hole hanging next to the dresser.  I was there after Easter & asked her if she wanted me to brighten it up.  She gave the okay, but said she liked the the little vase.  This is what I came up with.  A little brighter anyhow. It may need a tweak here or there, but I think it's pretty much done.  Visit my BLOG:  Donna Holdsworth Contemporary Art.  Thank you!

"Red Vase" Contemporary Floral Painting By Donna Holdsworth

SOLD

This painting is done on 14x11 textured stretched canvas.  Many layers of acrylic, textures, glazes and metalics.  I loved the underpainting on this one.  It was a beautiful manderine orange with a salt technique, but I just could not make it work as a whole painting.  I ended up painting over it but was able to salvage some by scraping around the silk cloth.  Matte finish to "de-glare" the metalics.  My version of some daffs I pass by on my morning walk.  View Auction Here, or visit my BLOG:  Donna Holdsworth Contemporary Art.  Thank you!
