More Rose Work

This first image is yesterday's transfer, now with light glazing. Prior to glazing, I rubbed the panel with a thin coat of linseed oil.



Here's my first rose with two glazing layers. The colors are feeling richer!

    When I look at your previous 'rose' posts along with this one, it is like watching one of those old polaroid prints develop before my eyes; I'm so enjoying watching your progression on this beautiful piece.

    I enjoy it too, Gretchen! Applying a glaze can be thrilling as a richness of color develops. Over the past day it's been more about looking and thinking on next steps.
