If you've been with me for awhile, you may remember that back in October, I posted about a tree I was working on - the "practice run" for a series of trees I see in my head.



After looking at it for awhile, I didn't like the mixed cream background anymore so decided to paint it, and this weekend I finally got around to it.


As I worked with these colours, I realized that a: I needed to thin them out even more, and b: I was going to need a lot more paint than these little trays would hold!


But after a lot more thinning out and a lot more white - I ended up with this:


Although I have a very specific vision for this piece that it involves this orientation, BSP was looking at it the wrong way and thought it was a branch floating in the water . That would make it a completely different quilt than I had intended, but what say you?



Do you like it this way better?
