Sneaking up on those shadows in the roses, and adding some color to the "not lace"! Also more color to the pot an some of the reflections painted in.
After the demo I received an email from someone who told me she tried to paint lace the next day and it was the first time she had been successful - due to the fact I talked about painting "not lace" - it helped her understand negative painting! That was cool!!
The roses pretty much finished, lace finished, and a bit more color added overall.
And, by the way - today is September 2 - my birthday! "Happy birthday to me"
