A Page for Caroline by Soulbrush

As Caroline's book is all about strong images and forms, I decided to do this flower for her. I used 4 inks only (the green is under the gold on one leaf to accentuate it). I painted over strips of newspaper, which always gives depth to a piece. I loved the startlingly vibrant effect.
Hope you like this Caroline. It will be winging its way to Marianne on Monday.

    Your page in Suki's book is awesome, just as I thought when I saw it on the blog
