"Limelight"

"Limelight" - 4th in my Daisies series - the small daisy gets the "limelight" this time. He shines with pride at being the center of attention. This piece took twice as long as the others - one of the daisies just refused to be painted. I must have scrubbed it off 7 or 8 times before finding just the right value ... thinking I was done with it, I was still not satisfied with the petal shapes, so I made a couple bold strokes and those "made" the painting... I love how, after all that, I was still able to maintain a simplicity of the shapes. SOLD Thanks Peggy T.
