Three Mandarin paintings are now complete! The first is on paper, the next two are in birch panel. One is in Acrylic, the other is Acrylic Finished in Oil Paint. These still look rough but I think I like the effect.

Mandarins are a symbol of abundance and good fortune in the Chinese New Year. The colour orange is said to be Joyous and uplifting. They are so tasty this time of year!
