IF: Looking Into The Garden

"She was confined to only look into the garden but never enter"
I was really please with the way this painting came out. My husband keeps asking me what am I going to do with all of the things I've been drawing and painting? I really don't know. I just feel like being creative has been bottle up in me for so long I'm just happy to let some of it out.

Cool that you didn't put the details of her face. :-)

This is quite beautiful! The white of the curtain and her dress against the chain fence and that over a pretty blue with the garden framed to make you want to climb through. Very nice.

Good for you--that's what it's all about. I wouldn't mind trying some painting again soon as well. Real nice contemplative and peaceful piece here.

I doesn´t matter what you do with the paintings. You are being creative, that matters! Nice and good use of colors.
I appreciated you liked my winter garden!

Reminds me of villas on the east coast of Mexico...Well done!

And thank you for the comments on my latest piece. :)

This has such a strong feeling of peaceful contemplation. You've created solitude for the figure by turning her head from us, but the sunny atmosphere makes this a positive solitude. Enjoy the process of painting... it sounds like for now, that's really what it's all about! You're enjoying the journey!

p.s. - thank you so much for stopping by Wings 4 You - I am looking forward to your joining the weekly challenges!

I love to create, and if I didn't sell my work, I'd be drowning in it! You should consider selling some of your paintings. I think you have a wonderful style that would be appreciated by many. Take a look at www.etsy.com for a good place to start selling online.
