Lovely colours.
Personally, I am uncomfortable seeing so much unpainted canvas in such a colourful piece, have you considered painting a background base colour before starting?
Obviously, this is just my own personal taste, if you're happy.....Ignore me! ;)

hi Nitsa,
i know what you mean. with this piece i thought with such bold colours it would be too much having a backing colour for the whole painting, so stuck to using a white background for that reason.. though i might consider this and try it in one of the other paintings :)

cheers!
