Japanese Lantern

I have had this gorgeous little cast iron lantern for sometime and finally painted it.  I lit the candle inside to show its beautiful light.  I chose an under painting in pink and used a white background and it was just washed out.  I decided to use this grayed violet to emphasis the yellow green of the lantern.  Thanks, Sue....you were one hundred percent right!  Thank you!!!!

A nice dark violet would be a nice addition!
