#28 Bok Choy, 2/6/19

Since my "tomato tango" went so quick, I thought I'd try for a second on the same day.  Something a little harder: the Bok Choy photo that's been on my mind.  I love the shape of bok choy, and I wanted to use another of my tiny 4x6 canvases which the bok choy fit.  I felt ready to tackle it!  And then, screech, I fell into the familiar fussing over edges.  When I look at it today, I shouldn't have centered it on the canvas. I should have done a bit more up-close and off-center.  And that dark velvet background.  Not sure how that came to be.  I put the leaf veins in with the rubber-tipped paint remover.  At the end, I mushed up some of the edges, because the point was to not stress the edges, so I had to at least give the illusion that the edges were "whatever".  But I was successful in not paper-toweling the brush-strokes out of the painting.
