China Cabinet

20x12.5 watercolor and gouache, one of my reworked pieces over a failed horizontal still life that had a red vase, white flowers, etc. I decided to make it more Asian by including fans in the background along with that style architecture.

Beautiful! I can never get over how you rescue failed paintings and make them into something so amazing.
