'Girl Amongst the Flowers'

Well...I think I've finished this one, though I'm not really happy with it...I feel it's 'bit of a flop' really.

I think I might scumble & scrape back the bottom left, & then repaint it in the darker tones, as in the above 'work in progress' image.  I think I stuffed up a few things...the girl is a bit lost....maybe I should have made her clothes a different colour.  I'm not sure.

'Girl Amongst the Flowers' - Work in Progress

 My last painting....'Reflections & Shadows', was just so detailed....I feel I really need to have some fun....so I'm playing around with pallete knives and thick paint.

I'm still not really sure what I'm doing.  I'm sort of, making it up as I go along.  I think I'll complete the figure next, so I've got a better idea with where I'm going with this one and how to complete it.
