Re: Re: HYB: making fantasy iris


>ENTANGLED (Ghio 2000) pink ground luminata with red purple veining
>LIP SERVICE (Ghio 2001) apricot base luminata with violet wash and lines

OK, I'm confused.  If the definition of luminata is, in part, that the 
veins have lighter or no pigment relative to the fall color, how can 
these two be luminatas (bearing in mind that I haven't seen photos of 
either and am just going by the above descriptions)?
