the tallest metal sculptures,

layers of paint,

the perfect lookout,

red hibiscus,

the smell of flowers,

tiled tables,

and blueberry smoothies on the balcony.

I have a question for you Juliette..and I ask this to most of my mixed media friends..do you first sketch your images or paint the background first? Would love to hear back from you on that…so many people answer this differently and I'm just curious..
