The Conservatory
Acrylic on wood panel 12" x 12" Currently not for sale
The park seems to have lots of curvy and sloped lawns. It gives variety and a bit of mystery. I have always loved the old Victorian conservatory. It's a grand building. This painting has gone through many revisions as I have worked on it. It had no conservatory to begin with but eventually it almost demanded to be placed there. It had two different and separate children until it found this lady whose place it is. One of the advantages of acrylic is that none of this matters - painting out can be done in a few seconds and original marks soon covered with new ones. Altogether it took me about 10 to 12 hours. Using mostly greens is a big challenge for me but I'm glad I persevered with it.

I love this painting!
I think you need to rename your blog, "Haunting Paintings of Mystery"! Your work is beautiful.
Thank you Anon. It's kind of you to say so.
Yes, it's really wonderful. Again, your greens are so lush, wondeful textures and nuances.
Diane, thanks. I have always found greens and landscape stuff difficult so that is nce to hear.
