This painting is a diptych, two paintings of 10 x 20 together and I spent several days on it, as it is much larger than the 8 x 8 Challenge paintings
that I've been working on this January.
However, I started out painting on a single canvas, 10 x 20, and I didn't think about it having a partner and becoming a 20 x 20 diptych until it was fairly far along.

Which was another learning opportunity as I quickly realized - turns out it's a smart idea to paint the two canvases side by side for a connecting design, and it's much easier to mix the same sharing colors, and therefore saving a lot of time!
Oh well. Live-y learn-y.

I love the display flexibility of a diptych (2) or triptych (3). They can be separated and hung on either side of a window for example, or displayed long, either horizontally or vertically,
for a skinny display above a love-seat or hung both together as shown above.
Have a fun day!
