I have overhead studio lights directly above where I have my still life table and usually they are off and I use an adjustable lamp for my light source, but when I was setting up these flowers I liked how the shadow landed on the table. However, it didn't hit the flowers so well, and I didn't notice this until I was almost done painting and so I turned the front light on. That brightened things up a bit but now it reminds me a bit of a scene from a prison break movie with multiple lights all on the perp. I may try this set up again tomorrow with different lighting.
Kristen, your brushwork is gorgous and your color scheme is too! Nice painting (and great movement). I love how you let little pieces of the underpainting shimmer through the top coat.
