I can already see where I need to touch up the dark background in the 'handle' area on this one. What a joy to paint. I think, were I to do it again, I'd 'neutralize' the violet in the cloth. Let the very subtle blue be 'the' color in this image. This was such a fun piece, I may do more pottery. I still have some dog show paintings in me, but I think I'll take a small break - or at least put other things in between them. My mom, gone now 13 years, still missed sorely, would like this one, I think.
