I have to be honest about this one.  I do not know if it is finished or if ever will be.  I will leave that to the viewer to decide.  It began life as an experiment of a black underpainting and then covered with a neutral.  I wanted to see if I could work with pure color next.  I love the pure pops of green and magenta.  Contrasting colors are so interesting.

That lead me to trying some stamping and marks.  I have become more comfortable with marks but stamping is still strange to me.  I do like the subtle nature of these.  So for now, they will stay.  

I am happy…..
