A colourful pink tree painting - Relaxing process of the many layers - Acrylic paint

Recently I’ve began sharing my acrylic painting ‘process videos’ with you. Instead of just shorts, I thought you may like seeing the gradual relaxing process…
This piece is my brightest yet, with a bright pink background.
OPINIONS PLEASE… Which frame colour suits it best? White or Black? 🙏
#acrylicpainting #artprocess #colourful #interiors
To give you a little background, I started painting originally for stress relief and therapy when I suddenly started having seizures 3 months before I was due to graduate from a Physiotherapy degree! My whole life turned upside down as you can imagine. But I believe ‘Everything happens for a reason’ and I couldn’t imagine my life without my art now.
In 2018 I was discovered by a Publisher, Artko Ltd, who supply framed prints of my work to shops throughout the UK. My bestselling pieces are my ‘Love Trees’.
My work is currently in various shops including John Lewis and Dunelm and links to these can be found below…
John Lewis:

Dunelm:

I ship my artwork Worldwide and so far have shipped my work to the USA, New Zealand, Australia, Japan, Germany, Malta, Amsterdam, Spain, Italy and Ireland.

    Not really now a days but I’ve had many pieces in the past I’ve ’over worked’. The rule I have is when I feel it’s ‘finished’ I then leave it for 24hrs… when I walk back in if I see it and think ‘YES’ then it’s finished finished…. But if I am unsure… then it’s not 😊🎨
