Acrylic and OilWhat a wonderful afternoon of painting! This is for the monthly references from "Virtual Sketch Date". Someone mentioned using black as their ground and, altough I dont use black, I may try using this dark background color as a ground...

Fabulous! You got the light on the bowl and the softness of the petals beautifully. Lovely interpretation.
I like the change in color for the tabletop. Your light petals really pop and come forward against the dark background. Nicely done.
Laine, this is so very pretty/actually beautiful. You did a wonderful job!
great painting :D Full of a lot of textures. I like the colour change of the tabletop too, the colour goes really well with the pale flowers.
As others have said, that complementary table top is very effective. I really like this!
Awesome painting! I love the contrast yet still maintaining those soft petals. Beautiful works here, I really enjoyed my visit!
Very nice Laine, I like using dark backgrounds for still lifes too, it really makes your subject pop.
Very nice.
Do you color the entire piece dark to begin with, then apply colors over the dark?
I really like your piece - lots of energy and texture. And the table top color adds a lot to the overall piece. Very pretty!
Beautiful work Laine, I love the richness of your colors and that background pulls it all together. Great brushwork technique.
Lovely! I like that you changed the color of the table. Everything ties together nicely.
That dark really works to make it pop. Good job.
All of the above. Very lively color and texture.
Wonderful piece of work.
Very bold!
Beautiful work!
Just gorgeous - those petals are amazing
This is divine. I love the thick paint, energetic brushstrokes and colour choices. Masterful!
I agree... beautiful... really cool
Just caught up with this - what a striking interpretation! I like the colours you used, especially that cool tabletop colour.
Nothing like coming in late! I've seen lots of versions of this photo, and your is one of my favorites. Love the dramatic background against the tender pink petals and reflections.
