Plumeria Paintings by Marcia


Continuing On

I have started to darken some of the plumeria in the middle to push them under and into the shadows. Have also started on the background in the upper left so that I can see better how to do those flowers up there. Have not removed the mask on the leaves to the left yet and won't do so until the flowers above them are done. Decided to show more of the leaf in that very dark area in the middle and may even have more showing. For those keeping track, I have spent 36 hours on this painting so far.

This is by far my favorite plumeria. I'm sorry to bug you with comments, but I'm really enjoying the play by play on these pieces. To watch the creation of these beauties and seeing them come to life is so much fun.

After I started putting color on the leaves, I realized the flower shadows were not dark enough. They always look dark when I begin.
