With this painting of Liz, I decided to use a limited palette--ultramarine blue, cadmium orange, titanium white and ivory black. Sometimes for me the idea of experimenting is more related to restricting my options than expanding them.

Nicely done! I get a sense of curiosity in the way she is looking down. I like the way you painted the hair. The way you modeled the background with a glow to the right really enhances this piece. Great work!
ReplyDeleteLove the colors in this. The opposing oranges and blues along with the pose are so striking. Beautiful job!
ReplyDeleteI love these soft colors, too. And I really like the light along her chin and neck. Really well done!
ReplyDeleteLove her expression! Limited color makes for more emotional content, I think. This just glows!
