counter crescendo: she played so beautifully

In this piece I am continuing to play with layering in various forms.  Here we have grid work on the upper right and lower left that’s placed over a watercolor base and then enhanced with small floret transfers.  I began the piece with the first layer of writing on the left side, “she played so beautifully, so sweetly, so skillfully, so carefully, she played”.  I think I would have liked to emphasize the red of the dress a bit more.  I was trying to tie in a theme of music as being natural to the ear similar to the buzz of the bee near the rose.  The weight of the piece is in the lower left, with an attempt at light airiness at the top right.
