My friend, Sharon, wants to buy the original pears painting :) So I'm painting another one, using different colors. This is the start. I do the background first, then the foregound, and do the pears last.
That's Holbein Shadow Violet in the background. Carol Carter turned me on to it and it's my new favorite color - granulating and separating into 3 distinct colors - and so cool!

Hi, Rhonda,
Congrats on your selling work! Thank you for sharing the very interesting info on the paint. I hope the second work will go well.
Cheers, Sadami
That colour is gorgeous and the granulations are beautiful - this is going to be another stunner!
Very nice start, Rhonda. And congratulations on your sale. The shadow violet reminds me of Daniel Smith's Moonglow...at least on my monitor.
Hmmmm, yummy new color. Can't wait to see how you progress!
Thanks, Sadami - the $ isn't in my hand yet, but I hope it will be soon (Sweetie's got a birthday coming up and Mama needs the dough!! ha ha)
Thanks, Lisa, I hope so!
Christiane, you're right - it's somewhat like Moonglow (which I also have) I should do a comparison of the two and see...
Thanks, Pam. I hope it works out.
Looking good!!!! Love that bg colour!
This is a real tease. Can't wait till it develops.

Shayna, thanks for stopping by and for taking the time to comment :)
I tried out the same color at Carol's recommendation!!! I LOVE it! Best wishes with your pears. I'm sure they will be fantastic as usual.
It's a fun color, especially if you like granulation, Heather :)
