Scarlet Purses

I'm considering this one complete. I built up layers using quin coral and gamboge (for a wonderful flourescent orange), quin rose & winsor red, both mixed in varying strengths with gamboge, perm alizarin & perylene violet for the flower petals. Greens were made with pthalo blue or antwerp with gamboge and blacks were made with pthalo green and perm alizarin, adding some of the mixed greens in to lean it toward green. Most of the background is abstract with shapes cut in negatively.
