"Truth" (sold)


    SOLD

Truth is not always easy to except, but all of us need "reality checks" in order to progress in life. This piece has more color than previous ones and can serve as a visual illustration of how pleasant truth can be when we allow it to permeate our lives. Every corner of this piece was designed to have interest with variation. When the color appeared to be too overpowering...I softened it with powdered charcoal applied with a soft brush (such as a Hake). It can be very strong and needs to be applied to a work off sheet first.

  1. Hi Dee! I love the addition of color, and I didn't know about softening it with charcoal. Cool! Keep creating these lovelies.. Your Spencerian is so beautiful! XOXO, Donna
