Crossroads

Crossroads. I painted this but didn't really have a plan in mind. The only thing I knew that I wanted in this picture is the color blends in the background.

I used Blue, Red, and Yellow. Next I blended them into each other to make the greens and oranges.

I planned on putting something in the foreground using black or white. I first used black to make a few flower stems with plans to top them with white flowers.

For some reason I turned the picture sideways (the way you see it now) and decided to carry the black lines all the way across the canvas.

It didn't have any depth so I layed black over the white on several lines and reached the finished product shown below.
