This work is so new it hasn't even got a title yet. I usually know what it's called long before its finished but with this piece nothing came to mind. Its quite a large canvas and I thoroughly enjoyed the process. There was a stressful moment when I couldn't go on with it for fear of ruining it but I got over that thank goodness. No collage on this piece whatsoever. I've even allowed some canvas to show through which was very difficult for my German heart to allow.

Thanks Julia, as does your work :p
This is beautiful, Uta. I love the washy feel to it. It feels like watercolor - but it's acrylics! I have never actually painted with acrylics. (only in collages) I love the way you've handled it. Teach me! ...April
Uta,
This is just lovely, I'm so proud of you and you freedom to explore. What inspiration you are to all of us.
Keep it up.

Thankyou so much ladies. I do love to explore new techniques but they scare me to death as I'm never sure if I can pull it off. I just have to keep saying to myself "its only a canvas, its only a canvas".
And click your boots together while you say that now and it will more powerful, hehehehe
I will definately try that Laura hehehe
Beautiful work, Uta.
I love how you took acrylics and used them in such a light transparent watercolory way. I do acrylics but use them in a more solid way, so you've given me new ideas and avenues to explore. Love the arrangement of the pears, very interesting! Overall, has mystery and wonder.

Teach me, too!
