And it is just way, way too cool, Paula!

I love the colors...very Santa Fe. The circles are just the perfect relief for the eye, while the line adds a balance which would not have been there without them. But the movement of this piece brings it all together...look how the colors change to make the "eggplants" appear to climb up and down the lines...

It may be something different from you, but it suits you oh, so well. I hope you do more....

I have been watching this blog waiting for this to appear!

Thanks so much...

Love the effects. The gradation of the blue field is a great touch,,and as Kim said, those eggplant colors look awesome on the blue.

Paula, this is great, and it is very very textile:) I mean that would make a great pattern for the new fancy hometextiles:)
Lovely painting, great!

Paula,

This piece is great. Great colors. It's got a 60's vibe to it. I'm diggin' on the simplicity of it.

This looks like a high priced piece of art you would see at Pottery Barn. Very cool. btw what is that poster on the right behind it with the red graffiti written all over it? Show us that!
