Variegated leaves against a strong pink background, surely too much?
Maybe, but the early signs are promising. The 2-tone leaves are going to make things doubly difficult, but if done well I think the effect will be dazzling. I am really taking on this decorative theme now.
I want the strong pink to remain and therefore everything will be adjusted against this to make the painting ‘work’.
