#60 green velvet cross

I had this old piece of green velvet that I was anxious to use.  I didn’t have an idea for it until I found the paint splattered brown paper with great shades of reds, browns and blacks.  The green was the perfect complement to this explosion of reddish color.  I brought purple and yellow in as well, in complementary roles, to provide structure and to help temper all of the activity. The red circle takes charge of the powerful green.
