Painting the Colors of Life

Earlier this year, on a whim, I decided to paint something primarily with transparent paints.  This is the result.  What "they" say is really true - I like the way light passes through the paint and bounces back to the viewer, and I like the depth you can achieve when you layer opaques on top of the transparent paints.  I have a long way to go with this, but I know it will be a great journey.
