Crafts for Summer and All Seasons - Acrylic Painting - “Mediterannean Flowers”
If you have ever spent vacation in southern European countries, you will notice how the earth tone colors dominate the architecture and the art works. These colors of reds, oranges and browns have a warm and natural feeling to them. The forms are simple and quaint. If you like this look, let this painting inspire you to create your own picture.
