Periwinkle and Cream

Periwinkle and Cream

Oil on linen – 24 x 14 inches

I wanted a still life that expressed my love of knitting – yes, I knit the mohair lace scarf.  But I also wanted the challenge of working with only two main colors in a narrow value range.  It looked deceptively simple but once I began to paint, I found golds, pinks, greens and lavenders everywhere I looked.
