I finally finished the brushwork on the Cat’s Eye iris.
After several tries, I decided to paint only the background.
The colouring of this iris makes it perfect for this approach.
For the final touch, I used FocalPoint 2 from OnOne Software.
Aces of Heart was created from a digital photograph taken in my garden a few years ago.
The brushwork was done in Corel Painter.
The finished work is printed on Moab Somerset Velvet.
The matting is museum style (extra at bottom).
Prepared for a 11″ by 14″ frame.
The weather is getting cooler, and I’m slowly getting back to printing.
On a whim, I decided to proof the Victoria cyclamen image on MOAB Entrada Rag Bright.
The black background looks velvety, and the details on the Victoria petals and leaves are sharp.
When dry and ready, it will be mounted with a white, 11 x 14 museum board with an 8 x 10 opening.
The new print option will be included in the Gallery
