French Lavender, Too.

 
 
This is the second half (of the photo)
 of the DPW "Relaxation Challenge".
The colors were stronger as this half was in more shadow.
 I liked the contrast of the white basket against the darker purples of the French Lavender.
 Still loving the scrollwork on the chair and the bright blue background.

French Lavender


 
 
Painted this for DPW's "Relaxation Challenge"
from the photo of French Lavender
provided by Dreama Tolle Perry as something that relaxes her.
What relaxes me is painting. So I painted the lovely Lavender.
 I particularly love all the pastel colors in her photo
and tried to keep that look.
I also liked the pale blue wrought iron chair the basket rested on.
 So French country...now that's a place I could really relax in.
