The last time you saw Color Cornucopia on this blog, I hadn't painted it yet, but I promised the colors I chose would be a surprise.   Breaking away from my traditional monochromatic color schemes, I borrowed an idea from the fashion world and decided to go colorblock.  I was also inspired by my multicolored studio.

This painting feels festive, energetic, and lively to me.  It's like a carnival.

All I need to do now is fill in the spots that I missed.

This will probably be the biggest painting I will make until I sell the art that is hanging on the walls of my studio, or someone commissions something. I'm running out of room!
