Hollyhocks painted with the Taiwan girls



This simple (but effective) design was the basis of what the girls painted in Taiwan during the November seminar. There wasn't time to do the border during the seminar, so each girl painted their own the next time they went to Ming's studio for a lesson. I haven't seen what they did but I guarantee they painted lovely borders. For my plate I chose two shades of green . . . . a lighter green with a darker green over the top. Then I popped some liquid bright gold around the edge to finish the framing!
