This is a rush job for a 93rd birthday bash ON SUNDAY!!! I got the photo at 4:30 last night and worked from 7:30 to midnight.
It is a leftover palette of colors that I just began noodling with and it worked very well for the subject. I used very washy turpsed down colors and it really maybe should have been a watercolor, for the technique. The lean mixture was fear on my part that it would be so wet by the party, it would mar the clothes of the participants.
I have emailed it to the client but think they are technologically challenged and although I was hoping they would help me decide on a background I think I will finish the carnation and maybe just leave it white.
