Color Backlit

Color Backlit/ oil on canvas board/ 8" x 6"/ SOLD

Day 15 in the Thirty in Thirty Challenge (link). My theme has been color so this little painting seemed apt.
The source is a photograph from a couple of years ago in my garden as the long rays of the spring sun  slipped into the evening. I was interested in the effect of the back lighting.

Note;  I found it needed the tiny sparkles of white as the last touches to "open it up".
