I liked the darks and pure color I could get with my mix (and yes I mixed up a batch to use for the whole painting).<br /><br />I chose cadmium yellow medium for my complement (warmer and more opaque than hansa).<br /><br />And yes, blues can be cool or warm, as can yellows.Diana Moses Botkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06254521493118166524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2902607246533124427.post-64174443126598370852010-05-16T16:51:01.619-05:002010-05-16T16:51:01.619-05:00What a fun challenge this month!

Your use of background repeats the fluidity of the vase so nicely, too!

Its also good to think about the actual tube colors and what is in them. Some lean towards the cool or the warm side, though we might have a blue and think, well, thats cool obviously. But, it can be deceiving!A Painter's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08520775774106380886noreply@blogger.com
