My acrylic ACEO this week is entitled 'Silver Leaf' as I was inspired to use silver and orange in my colour scheme.

Christine, your leaf is beautiful. I once took a course at the botanical garden. It was a 25 hour course and 15 of those hours were spent doing a single basil leaf! I knew right then that botanical illustration is not for me. I would love to be able to see your leaf against the orange background up close. The combination is so pretty. Faye

Very pretty - usually you see the opposite - orange leaf on grey sidewalk. Nice twist!

I love the reverse (negative). . . . the grass isn't silver from the frost and the leaf isn't orange from the tree. . . Blessings, Janet PPF

Lovely leaf painting, nice pared-downness. <3

Nice work. I like the way the green is peeking through the orange background in spots. You don't even notice it at first.

Annabelle said...

Nice and simple.
Like the vein details in the leaf and the brilliant background color.....makes the silver stand out beautifully.
