Description
I was unhappy with all of the white space which, to me, felt like it was swallowing the vivid colors for which I was aiming. As a result, I re-imagined this piece as a jeweled fragment from a fresco. I'm not yet sure if it feels complete, but I'm trying to avoid "filling in" all of the white so I'm going to let this stand awhile and see if I get some helpful feedback (which, by the way, is ALWAYS greatly appreciated!!)

Thank you Katya. I was trying for a fresco fragment feel. I'm glad you are seeing that too.

Wow, this is really terrific. I does have that "jeweled fragment from a fresco" feel. Wonderful work.
