Welcome to Michael's Creative Tuesdays. The current theme is 'Lamps'. My piece is done on 6" good quality pink textured cardstock in watercolour pencil and crayon. I turned a lamp on at home in the late evening and painted pretty much what I saw, give or take some of the details. Also, I don't have pink walls! I hoped to capture some of the reflected light as best I could. The lampshade is beige so it emitted a yellowish light, and the light escaping above and below the shade was white, emitted directly from the bulb. I am showing a photo as my scanner changes the pink colour to a different shade.

Christine, I love your light piece and that you used pink paper as your base color. The light emitted is perfect. 😊
Thanks for stopping by Tracy!
I love the '60s colors!
I laughed at you saying that you don't have pink walls.
