Tropical Expressions Five

16 x 22 mixed media on paper. This piece has oil pastel and watercolor along with some other drawing media. I used a resist technique as well. My husband likes it when I do tropical theme pieces. I am not sure what I am thinking of, other than lots of blue and green. I guess when you really look at it you can see palms, vines and a building in the background. Of course, this could be anything.

I'm a little fond of tropical subjects myself. Love this, particularly the use of mixed media.
