I like the scarf and the way it connects to the oragne in the store window. I wonder, was there really such a serendipitous pairing of color, or is that a place where you creative license to build themes and colors?
Thanks, all. I probably took this a bit too far before photographing it; it feels really close to done to me at this point. But I'm giving it some time off the easel before I look at it again.
Margaret, the blues and oranges are in the photo--not so intensely, but at least suggested; I'm exaggerating it and playing with it. You're right, the juxtaposition of colors (and shapes) is what made me paint this.
I thought my comment from a few days back went through. (It's tough to be on Wordpress in a blogger world). I have more trouble getting comments through anyhow I like all the horizontals and diagonals in this composition. And the color choices..... Acid lemon next to that square of aqua then coming in with a power punch of orange. Looks like this was fun to paint.
Lately, I've been using life drawing as a starting place for works that combine reality, imagination and experience.

Hey and thanks, Scrybe.
ReplyDeletePA, thanks. I've had trouble with comments, too--on blogger--which doesn't seem fair, at all. It was fun to paint.
Hallo Jean, I love the colors.
ReplyDeleteI thought to see a drawing of Cassandra. She seems to be disappeared;-)
Kind regards.
Jean must be painting fast and furious. No time to chat.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Annie. Yeah, Cassandra's gone from the site.
ReplyDeleteHi, AH. I can too chat. Though correlation between painting and posting runs more like, the more time spent painting, the more likely I am to post.
