Creative Spotlight: Moon Goddess, Brightened

So I painted this Moon Goddess painting, and I really loved her, and then the other day she “said” to me “I want to be brighter!”

My easel was free and clear when the huge canvases for the Guam Reef Hotel moved out, so Moon Goddess took its place on the easel and began to transform.

Here she is before:

Now I know some of you will say “I like how she looked before!” but when you see the painting in person, the difference is beautiful. The “before” shot was taken when the paint was still wet, and once fully dry, the piece was a bit, dark. When you see the updated one, you have all the texture that the original did, but now it just shines. She is gorgeous in person.
