This is my experiment in acrylics medium to paint representational palm leaves in various colors. My color palette ranges from the light pinks, to purples, blues and greens. And not to miss my favourite "Red Leaves" are peeking from an angle :)
I love painting different elements of nature and here the focus is on how there are so many shapes and colors of leaves all around us. Probably no two leaves match one another, but when we see them together in a cluster, they all look like a family, creating the most beautiful structure/shape/sight.
This painting is one of my favorites because of the beautifully painted canvas edges too. All the edges have also been painted with the continuation of the entire painting pattern. You frame it or you flaunt the gorgeously painted edges, this is going to be a beauty in your home/ office.
This painting has an interesting story behind its creation. I started this with a blue and green background beautifully blended and with little textures. Then I started painting few of these leaves. The plan was to stick to greens and blues, but I got carries away and kept adding different hues of both colors and then shifted towards purples and pinks as well. As i kept building layers of leaves on top of each other, I started realizing that the background was almost blending into my leaves and it was a very muted painting. As you know, I love that subtle vibrancy in my paintings, and somehow the background kept bothering me, while the leaves were getting outrageous with my new red addition :).
I realized that a darker background would have made the painting look much better, but it seems it was too late to redo the entire painting. I had already giving a couple of days to this. I experimented with adding black color in one tiny space to see if that can be a good option, and yes, I loved it. The entire background was painted as if I was painting the actual subject, I looked for those tiny shapes and spaces behind the leaves and started covering them up with black. It really took many more days to finish, but at the end I feel it was all worth the effort.
