Thorns

"Thorns", Acrylic on Panel, 36x24"
I decided that I'd finish and share my newly completed large painting today instead of doing my regular little piece.  For the most part, I'm happy with how how it turned out.  I was a bit frustrated that I couldn't get a better likeness of Meghan (the one in red), but I like the expression on her face as rendered.

I'm having a lot of fun with these multi-figure paintings.  As soon as you introduce a second figure, there's a sense of story - since you try to figure out the relationship between the two people.  I picked the title because the women reminded me of a flowers (rose & violet) and relationships between women are never simple.
