I had to try this neon at night sign. An interesting challenge to try to get the glow. Again, this is an icon in my old neighborhood...Seaside Oregon.

    Ha ha Sharon! Are you saying I succeeded? The orange 'glow' is just red, yellow and white. I usually limit my palette to the 3 primary colors plus white. If it looks like neon to you all I can say is it's all an illusion. Thanks for bolstering my ego.

    Love it. Neon, now that is a gutsy subject if I ever saw one. Someday I may try my hand at it but until then I will have to be satisfied to look at your lovely painting.
    Cheers!
