Shadow Road
Oil on Canvas board, 16" x 20"
Sold at $100.00 plus shipping.
I decided to work with a limited palette today, no yellows, no blues. It's a palette from a book on oils, which gives three limited palettes: blue-yellow, purple-orange, and this one in red-greens. You get a turquoise and a citron, and then several reds and greens, black and white. So I spent a lot of time mixing colors today, to get the brighter ones I wanted. (Citron and Scarlet make a nice orange.) I like this one a lot, it has harmony to it. The book: The Yin/Yang of Painting by Hongnian Zhang, a lovely book. Thanks for looking.

Very cool! I am tempted to get that book, it sounds interesting. I love your last two paintings. Really nice compositions and colors.
Beautiful colours.
