"Calla Lily Confetti" 9X12 Oil


I am experimenting with different styles as you can see from previous post. I am not sure if I like this one but I think there are good parts about it. After I uploaded this picture of the painting to my laptop, I sat and cropped parts of the painting using GIMP. (I am an Ubuntu user). I felt better about some of it. Not sure if I want to keep this style of painting.
But, I think it is important to go outside your comfort zone, make mistake and grow from it. Else, you end up painting the same tree, the same barn and the same comfortable painting. I just can't do that despite what my ego wants. You know, to show only the best - or what you believe is your best.
