Pale blue Sari painting #2

Actual colours are slightly less intense, the background blue is paler

Detail with stronger reds added

At this stage I've incorporated a few more reds and pinks using Windsor & Newton oils in Alarazin Crimson (my favorite!), lemon yellow, soft mixing white and some mauves. Some touches of fresh green provide a counterpoint to all the sugary pinks and lilacs. I've had to rework some of the gold detail on the motifs as these have become semi obliterated with the successive layers of oil paint. A few more 'motifs' have been drawn in using gold paint and I think I'll stop there. no more detail required.
