Beautiful...is your palate a touch different lately...I'm wondering if you are doing the "limited" amount of colors ...

whatever you're doing it sure is striking.

Sandy, I work with triads--three colours, one blue, one red and one yellow. This is a triad I picked out because it reminded me of Autumn: Thalo Crimson, Quinacridone Gold and Cobalt Blue in this painting. The idea of triads orginates with Nita Leland www.nitaleland.com/project/triad.htm
I have tried all her suggestions and it helps me learn about mixing and using colours.

Thanks for visiting.
