The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

I had a little painting time yesterday, and while my work-in-progress in the flower series has seemingly taken steps backwards, frustrating me to no end:

(I apologize for the glare from the flash, but I wasn't about to get the tripod out this morning)

...I did have some success with a quickie I worked on in the same stretch. Although it is still pretty rough, there are two things that really pleased me about this little canvas. First, I nailed the color. Second, I was working quickly and using matte medium, and I really feel like I got an oil look/feel to the acrylics. Hooray for getting my mojo back!
