Eclectic Studio - Tammy Morrison-Koenig

I love the way this mini still life painting turned out. I painted this on a cad red toned background and added layers both transparent and opaque acrylic over the top. It really adds a feeling of continuity to this painting.   2.75 * 2.75 inch acrylic on stretched canvas includes mini display easle **SOLD**

Now hopefully I can get a chance to complete my sketchbook in time. :O Until next time Tammy

I am hoping that she finds peace now. So I am dedicating this painting in her memory.
