What a great idea, ...Gee, I love the two versions!! What a great idea, they seem to be moving, but slowly, it is a busy scene, but nevertheless it looks calm!! How do you achieve that?? Oh, I know, fifteen years of pondering! ;-) My advice would be "Stop changing this one, it is perfect as is it; start another one, with the same idea that you'll push even further". Honestly, I love it!!!Cathyhttp://cardsandstuff.canalblog.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859449716295663213.post-75906300265160183122012-01-15T21:03:52.732+02:002012-01-15T21:03:52.732+02:00What a fascinating painting; the duplicating, turn...What a fascinating painting; the duplicating, turning shapes seem perfect for a work that has evolved over time.<br />I love the warm colors you've added and the depth of all the layering!laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999450626008299190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859449716295663213.post-14445713972928154442012-01-14T03:27:47.229+02:002012-01-14T03:27:47.229+02:00Hi, Cathy,

Surely you mean you get it out of the cupboard about every 5 years, take a look at it and add some new technique you have learned, then put it away again for another 5 years!! Well, however you have arrived at this final stage - its brilliant.
