Playing With Light

After a couple of month of painting big, I have returned to small canvases and panels.  This one is inspired by two things; light and crocheted lace, my two favorite elements in a painting.  Creating a light and "air" feeling on this one included Naples Yellow which helped to create this effect.  I truly get lost in bliss when I paint the delicate threads of my grandmother's crocheted pieces.
