Is it really the end of week one? So soon!  Yup, it is.

I named this Light and Shadow because I goofed. The highlight on the vase and the shadow are on the same side. No, you’re right. There is a good explanation. There is a lamp on the left of the vase, and the bright light is reflecting off a mirror on the right. Makes perfect sense to me.

Had a busy day, so I kept it simple and quick. I took a chance on trying the mineral paper again. And I have to say it is growing on me. I still like Yupo better. (Have some on order.)

On Yupo, the dark spots on the foreground would have spread more. The rust color was very wet at the time. Also, the background is actually two different shades. A pink, and a flesh tone. There should be pockets of each, but they mingled into one. No worries. This one was fun.

 

My Pinterest board for this challenge is inspirational!

    As I wake up to a new day, the ink’s tidy encapsulation of irregularly shaped gifts of yellows/rusts and greens is giving me an upbeat feeling.
