Another red picture

I don't know what it is about red paintings but I just love them and am instantly drawn to them. I saw a red textured abstract painting in the Vancouver Culture Crawl last November that I could have bought If only I had enough dollars left and a suitcase big enough to get it home in.
The alternative was to attempt to recreate a similar one of my own.

This is my effort. I think its finished but I need to live with it for a few weeks to be sure. In the mean time I'm doing a second one as the canvases were prepared last September before I went to Canada. The paintings are acrylic on canvas and the base paint is a dark brown. The finished colour's are reds dark brown, black and gold leaf.
