Playing with some new color combinations on a tropical themed project with Tattered Angels paints, click the link to see the rest of my post for this month's team challenge. What do you think of hot pink fishes?
Fabulous colours in this project by Wendy Senger for the Color Connections workshop at the end of May in sunny California. Wendy has a little comp going for a free ticket to what looks like a wildly colourful creative day.
