I took a photo of this in the springtime, and just got around to painting it. For the various background greens, I mixed the colors rather than use greens out of the tube. Wow! What a difference it makes. They have a much richer quality to them. It's hardly discernible in this photograph, but in the flesh, the colors are more saturated. Painting is an ongoing series of lessons and discoveries, that's for sure. (Actually, I custom mixed the colors for the flowers as well, since there wasn't anything that came close from the paint tube.)
