Trumpet Vine for Marcia (Painting as of January 10, 2023)



This is my current project as it looks right now.  It is time to work on the blossoms, but I decided that I had to adjust the background color first. My eventual goal is fo the final color to be a dusty adobe pink. More immediately, I knew that I might be using orange tones to shade those blossoms, and if I kept the background as it was, I wouldn't be able to see what I was doing. So I added some washes with purple and brown tones to the background. This is not the final color but it is closer than it was.  Then I used some yellow and white to add highlights to the blossoms.
