Time for Paint Party Friday! I don’t have a finished painting to show this week, but I’ve been working on this mixed media painting over collage. It still needs a lot of work and may end up being trashed but maybe I can salvage it. I don’t like the background so I know I will change that but haven’t decided yet just what I want to do with it. At least I got to paint a bit this week, so I’m happy about that.
Toad in a Boat
Just Because
No! Never trash it! She is looking nice! But I do understand when something is not working in the painting, just went through that myself :o)
The girl has much strength, I only setting the House which sits of Fund (can cover her with a very dark color to enhance the level first), but throw it NOT! It is your work mimala (You mustlove it). Abrazo
She is gorgeous! I’m so inspired by all the pieces that are coming out of Sharon’s cass. Wow!
OH!!! She is beautiful. So powerful. Change the background if you aren’t feeling it, but she is fantastic.
She’s quite lovely, I’m sure you’ll find the way with your background but definitely a piece that’s worth continuing with! ~Happy Paint Party Friday! #40 Robin Panzer Art Studio 33
Actually the colors in the background are complementary to those of your woman so I think the background goes beautifully. She is gorgeous, but I feel some emotion in her eyes that intimidates me. Faye
Oh, don’t trash this! I think she’s beautiful! Let it sit for a bit and then try again with a fresher perspective. Sometimes these things take a long time.
Happy PPF! Glad you did painting, too!
Wow!!! her face is stunning!!! Great work.

Set her aside and come back later. She is too interesting to trash. Take a break and come back to her later with fresh eyes and spirit. Happy PPF!

I am liking where it is going! Very interesting face. I agree with the others Sheri. Take a break and come back. I think she is fantastic!
She is most dynamic and background you can change ~ give it a rest and then revisit it ~ I think you might like it ~ ~ thanks, namaste, Carol (Share the Creative Journey) Happy PPF.
I love the colors & stunning look. Don’t trash her. Happy Holidays & PPF!
I agree with everyone – definitely don’t trash her! That hair is fabulous.
But I hear and feel you – and that house and path are easily reworked into something more fitting for her presence. And she’s got lots of it!
she is so beautiful!!!! I actually love the colors….
happy PPF!!
Oh no, don’t throw it away. I’ve done that a few times and have regretted it. I like the way it looks. I like the little house the way it is. Perhaps the background could be darkened a little. Really a nice job. Happy Holidays!
Don’t trash this! 🙂
I love the hair ornamentation and details.
And the complementary color palette of orange and blue is fantastic!
Happy PPF!!

I agree with everyone else — your mistress is quite striking. You definitely shouldn’t trash her.
WOW! I love this…the pops of color the composition…gorgeous!
Don’t trash it!! It’s beautiful!! The the leafy hair are great!!
Save it! She is fabulous! The dark background really helps her pop- but I understand you’re not where you want to be with it. That happens to me too often. The ones that do work out I tend to love even more just because I know what that canvas and I went through together.
I love her, please don’t trash. As others said, come back when you have figured it out. She is perfect.
It is beautiful, she’s perfect! Please don’t trash, come back when you have figured it out and maybe it will tellyou what the background needs to be.
I think she is fabulous! I love her body position and her face reminds me of Meryl Streep. 🙂
I love the house in the background and her wonderful headress! Love the idea of your last few posts painting over magazine collages as well!
Me again, thanks for the blog visit and the lovely comment on my painting. I hope you have a wonderful holiday xx
